A. hi dear Both research and anecdotal evidence show that most breastfeeding moms do not get their periods until at least 3-6 months after birth. Why? Prolactin, the hormone responsible for milk production, has the ability to suppress the hormone that manages periods. This is called lactational amenorrhea.
