Hi Malka!
If the placental rupture caused her to bleed too much, she could have
pituitary injury. Sheehan syndrome is necrosis of the pituitary leading
to the loss of all pituitary hormones, but some of us have seen women
with hemorrhages whose pituitaries seemed to be shocked but not dead,
that recovered over time.
Another possibility is a retained placental fragment. Is the OB willing
to examine her to rule this out?
Nursing with a supplementer may help preserve the breast tissue
architecture from remodeling until either the pituitary kicks back in or
the placental fragment is identified and removed. Of course, there are
other rare things that could have happened. Are there any unusual things
happening with her body this time?
