Postpartum bleeding: It is typical to have a change in your periods after childbirth. This is due to the hormonal changes you have experienced. Typically this condition resolves as time passes after breastfeeding. Sometimes, hormones are left unbalanced and will require supplementation to resume normal periods and prevent breakthrough bleeding. Consult a gynecologist who can test and treat the imbalance.
