Hello,
Not getting periods while you are breastfeeding the baby is a good sign. It occurs because of hormones (prolactin) if you start weaning; again you will get periods. Biotin has no role in period stopping.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regard,
Dr. Siddartha
