Missing a period while breastfeeding is quite common due to hormonal changes called lactational amenorrhea, which can delay or stop menstruation even after 2 years in some women. A negative pregnancy test is reassuring, but cycles can still be irregular. If you do not want pregnancy, use reliable contraception (like condoms or consult a doctor for suitable options during breastfeeding). If periods remain absent for 2?3 months or you develop other symptoms, it?s best to consult a gynecologist for evaluation and guidance.
