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.

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.

Lochia is a normal phenomenon when the woman's body after giving birth needs to eliminate the fluid that flows into the uterus and then out through the vagina. Normally, the phenomenon of lochia after giving birth will disappear after a few weeks.

Normal lochia will last about 20 days, in some cases it can be up to 40-45 days but the amount gradually decreases, changing from dark red to light brown, light yellow then clear and especially odorless.

Doctor, I gave birth by cesarean section for about 14-15 days and I didn't see any more discharge, but after a few days and until now I sometimes have blood or dark brown discharge, what is it?

A woman's body changes more or less after giving birth, in which lochia and menstruation after giving birth are always topics that many women pay special attention to. Lochia after giving birth and the time to get menstruation again can vary depending on each mother and the mother's method of giving birth.

Normal lochia will not have a foul smell, only a slight fishy smell, usually lasting about 01 month, a few mothers can last from 40-45 days and the amount will also decrease significantly, the lochia will change color from bright red and gradually turn to clear yellow. Thus, the lochia will gradually decrease in quantity, fade in color each day after birth.

Lochia retention after normal birth or cesarean section is a condition that occurs in the postpartum period. Although it is not life-threatening, if not treated thoroughly, it will make the patient feel uncomfortable and can cause complications such as uncontrolled bleeding, blood clotting disorders...

Lochia is a common physiological phenomenon in postpartum women and often brings about an unpleasant feeling. However, lochia with an unpleasant odor is an abnormal sign that all women after giving birth should pay attention to.

A woman's body will secrete a lot of lochia after giving birth. This is a normal physiological phenomenon but can also cause abnormal changes and negatively affect the mother's health recovery process. The most dangerous of these is lower abdominal pain after giving birth due to lochia stagnation.
