ExpertDr.Sabiha AnjumObstetrician and Gynaecologist4 years agoA. There is no need to get any health check up but if you had unprotected intercourse do a pregnancy test and when the pregnancy is ruled out make sure that you keep using contraception because the cycles may come at any time. If they don’t come even up to one year after giving birth then consult your doctorWrite Your Answer Here

Poonam RoyMom of a 4 yr 11 m old boy4 years agoA. Hi Mom
The hormones in our body that are responsible for lactation interfere with the hormones responsible for menstruation. That's why till we are exclusively breastfeeding, chances are we will not have periods. As you withdraw breastfeeding gradually, the menstruation hormones shall start getting activated.
My son is 4 months old and my periods have not started either.

Jasmine KaurMom of a 9 yr 4 m old boy4 years agoA. Hello dear parent, post pregnancy , women may restart with their periods within a year. If you feel uncomfortable during that period,# then you must consult with your gynaecologist for proper examination and treatment.
Good luck and take care
