Check with doctor : It is important to reflect on your cycle pattern prior to pregnancy. It is not uncommon for cycles to take several months to return to normal after birth. If you have painful heavy cycles before, possibly from your endometriosis, this may be normal. If you are breastfeeding or initiating birth control, these actions can affect your cycle pattern as well. Your doctor can help regulate your symptoms.
