Doctor, I have a question: I just gave birth to a baby 1 month ago and I have bright red blood. I had a cesarean section and I breastfeed my baby exclusively. Can you tell me if this is menstruation or early menstruation? If it is early menstruation, how long will it take for my period to return? Thank you very much, doctor.

Hello doctor! I gave birth more than 2 months ago but the lochia is still bleeding a lot of bright red blood. I went to the doctor and the wound was normal, the ultrasound showed the uterus was clean.

Postpartum lochia is a normal physiological phenomenon, however it causes discomfort for women, especially when the lochia lasts for a long time. How long does it take for lochia to stop after a cesarean section is a question of many pregnant mothers when choosing a cesarean section.

Lochia is a normal phenomenon after giving birth, however, this makes women feel extremely uncomfortable, especially when the lochia lasts for a long time.

The rate of cesarean section in our country is constantly increasing due to the advantages of this method. However, surgery is not always favorable. In some cases, there will be abnormal signs at the cesarean section wound.

After giving birth, improper care of a cesarean section wound or perineal suture can leave keloid scars that make women lose confidence, or even put them at risk of painful and dangerous infections.

Lochia retention after cesarean section is a phenomenon in which lochia cannot exit through the vagina but remains in the uterus of the mother. Treatment of lochia retention after cesarean section is a method to help expel lochia from the uterus, helping the mother escape discomfort and many dangerous complications in the postpartum period.

Postpartum lochia makes women extremely uncomfortable. If lochia lasts for a long time, is too little or too much... it will be dangerous for women after giving birth. Therefore, mothers need to know how to clean lochia, as well as pay attention to their daily activities and rest to ensure their health after giving birth.

After the lochia ends, depending on each individual, menstruation will appear 1 month or several months later. This is the first menstruation after giving birth, so its nature is different from normal menstruation: longer, more abundant, darker in color...

Recovery after a cesarean section will be longer and more difficult than a normal birth, there will be more blood loss and the risk of postpartum infection is also higher... Therefore, women who have had a cesarean section must be more careful about care and exercise to recover their health as best as possible.

Retained placenta after birth is a phenomenon in which the placenta is left in the uterus after birth, which can cause severe infection that is dangerous to the mother's life. Abnormal bleeding is a warning sign of retained placenta.
