hi, my baby is now of 5months. on complete breast feeding. wanted to ask when I will get my periods back? last periods I had when my baby was of 3months another question is when there is chances of ovulation? is the protection (or pills) necessary now to avoid pregnancy?

A. Hello dear parent! Safer contraceptive measures are required even when there is absence of periods. Better to consult your doctor for further advice. Eat a well balanced healthy diet and keep yourself hydrated all through the day while breastfeeding your baby. Good luck and take care.
