Data were collected from 197 women from September through November 1983. The mean duration of postpartum amenorrhea was 14.7±8.7 (SD) months. The median was 16.5 months, and 90% of the women resumed menstruation within 30 months of parturition. One hundred and ten women gave birth within the 3 years before the survey (group A), and 87 women gave birth between 3 and 6 years before the survey (group B). The mean duration of postpartum amenorrhea in group A (12.7±7.6 months) was significantly shorter than in group B (17.2±9.3 months) (p<0.01,t-test). The mean ages of group A (24.4±6.2 years) and group B (25.2±6.9 years) did not differ significantly. These results suggest that the duration of postpartum amenorrhea of women in a Sundanese agricultural village, although relatively long, has recently become shorter.
