When does the first period start after childbirth?

It depends on whether you are breastfeeding. For exclusive breastfeeding, it typically resumes 6 months to 1 year later. For formula feeding, it typically resumes 2 to 3 months later. If it has not returned for over a year, a medical examination is necessary.

첫 생리는 자궁이 회복되었다는 신호입니다.

  • 변화: 자궁 경부가 넓어지면서 출산 전보다 생리통이 줄어드는 경우가 많습니다.
  • 피임: 생리가 없더라도 배란은 일어날 수 있으므로, 연년생 계획이 없다면 반드시 피임하셔야 합니다.
  • 관리: 첫 생리는 양이 많거나 주기가 불규칙할 수 있으나, 시간이 지나며 점차 안정됩니다.
💡 생리불순

단유 후 3개월이 지나도록 생리가 없다면, 내원하여 난소 기능을 점검해 보시기 바랍니다.
