I gave birth on December 21 and I started the pill on February 14. I still haven't had a return of my period, is this normal?

Question

Hello I am not breastfeeding. I am taking Mirvala and will stop for the induction. My doctor told me that after taking it for 2 weeks I could have unprotected intercourse. can there be any chance that I could get pregnant if I had intercourse on Feb 27?

Hello Ma'am, Yes, it is possible. Are you breastfeeding? Which pill are you taking and are you taking it continuously, or are you stopping for the onset of your period? Hello Ma'am, If you were taking it every day since the 14th, the risk of getting pregnant is practically zero, no. You could wait in about 10 days before stopping it, which is 1 month after starting it. If your period still doesn't start at that time, you shouldn't worry about that either. Menstruation sometimes takes several months to return after giving birth (sometimes 6 months).
