A member asked:
My period returned after i have been breastfeeding my baby for 1 year. this period lasted longer than usual, and few days after it ended. i had spotting of red & brown blood. could this irregularities be normal because i am still breastfeeding?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes! The other more significant reason is the body's removal of all the lining of the womb(uterus) and remnants of the placental attachment.
