Periods postpartum

[XMelissaWx]

I am now 5 months PP and I’ve only had 1 period and that was at 8 weeks PP.

I only breastfed for 2 weeks so it can’t be due to that.

Just wondering if anyone else experienced this and if I should be worried?

I should add - I’m definitely not pregnant

It's a long shot but are you on any psychiatric medication? This will cause your periods to stop.

Nope! nothing - I may request blood tests at GP

It couldn't just be the stress from having a new baby. It's worth asking for a blood test to check your horomone levels, particularly prolactin.
