How long before i can breed my syrian hamster after the first litter?

My syrian hamster just had a litter of only 2 pups it was her first litter and shes fairly young just around 7 months i want to breed her again, but i dont know how long before i should start trying. The litter is just over 3 weeks old and are already separted because of rough playing. so if any body knows how long before i can start to breed her again let me know.
Answers:
If you have not researched even this simple question then you should not be breeding.

There are many things to take into consideration, health and temperament are only two of them. You already know that her first litter has a history of rough play. When those babies reach sexual maturity that rough play could turn into aggression. Do you want to breed a female with a history of producing biters? Kinda makes it dumb, right? Making babies that you cant't play with.

Her health and breeding (her parents' genetics) are unknown, and any mate you get for her will be the same.

In the words of the great Carlos Mencia. "If you are a Dee, please don't marry a Dee.It's genetics, don't youu see? Your kids will be Dee Dee Dee!"
It will happen soon. i bought two hamsters and in about 6 months we have about 75.
You should wait atleast 3 more weeks and try not to get her pregnant after because after I have found it could be dangerous after 2 years to have babies.
