IT is normal phenomenon not having menstruation while breast feeding. It is called lactational ammenorrhoea. In some women it starts earlier while still breast feeding but in some it takes some longer. it will be start on its own when their will be normal ovulation cycle restored probably while weaning off. so need to go for any medication.
i hope it will help.
