A member asked:

I had a baby on 21st july and haven't had a period yet, is that normal? i am not breastfeeding and i am not pregnant

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not normal: Your period should have resumed within 8 weeks if not breastfeeding. Contact your OB MD to be re-examined as to why the period is absent.
