HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Complete breast feeding is associated with the likelihood of no periods but if you need to use formula as well because breast milk is not enough, then the periods can come back.
It does not have any impact on your overall health, it only means that your periods may be returning to their normal cycle.
I hope this helps
