Question

Lactational amenorrhea is reliable upto how much time?

Answer 1

• Lactational amenorrhea is a natural contraceptive method based on the fact that ovulation and therefore the menstrual cycle do not occur during the period of intense lactation following parturition.
• Therefore, as long as the mother breastfeeds the child fully, chances of conception are very less.
• However, this method has been reported to be effective only up to a maximum period of six months following childbirth.
