Solution

We can divide contraceptive methods into three primary categories: natural, mechanical and hormonal. Lactational amenorrhea is a natural method of contraception. Amenorrhea essentially means lack of menstrual cycles. This is based on the principle that women are not fertile, that is they do not ovulate or have menstrual cycles for six months, after childbirth or parturition.
