I think leaks can come at anytime really but usually the first 6 months is the higher risk time. I was told 3-6 months was heal time fully but everyone is different too.

This is one of those issues you wont get a consistent answer. I've heard 4 weeks, 6-7 weeks, 3 months, 6 months... I don't think anyone really knows.
