title: [Resumption of menstruation during lactation after delivery].
abstract: Twenty-three women in the menstruation resumption during lactation were evaluated. Average period of lactational amenorrhoea was 7 months after delivery. Ovulation before the first menstruation has occurred in 7 breastfeeding women (39%), but only in one case it took place earlier than 6 months after labour. The correlation was established between the resumption of menstruation and entirely period of breastfeeding per day. The Lactational Amenorrhoea Method (LAM) as the family planning procedure was discussed.
