The lochia is almost over and bleeding again

Women will discharge lochia after giving birth, whether it is a natural birth or a caesarean section. This is a normal phenomenon in life. When lochia is discharged from a woman's body, her endocrine system will return to normal and her skin will get better and better. However, some people will bleed again after the lochia ends. What's going on?

Under normal circumstances, the bleeding from lochia will stop in about half a month, and a small amount of red secretion may appear occasionally in the later stage. It usually returns to normal 6 weeks after delivery. From your situation, I don't know whether you had a natural birth or a caesarean section, and whether there is any problem with retained placenta. It is still a little early for your regular menstruation to resume, so you should go to the hospital for a B-ultrasound check. If there is no abnormality, as long as the amount of blood is not more than the usual menstrual volume, you can observe it for a few days to see if it can return to normal.

Considering this situation is mostly due to the postpartum uterus not recovering well, it is recommended to take a rest and pay attention to local hygiene. Consider going to the hospital in time to choose B-ultrasound and other examinations to exclude the situation of residues, and then take appropriate anti-inflammatory and hemostatic drugs to improve the condition. Pay attention to prohibiting sexual life for a short period of time, and it is recommended to strengthen nutrition.

If you suddenly have heavy bleeding 20 days after delivery, the first thing you should consider is that it is caused by poor uterine recovery. It is recommended to go to the hospital for examination, such as B-ultrasound examination to understand the recovery of the uterus, and timely treatment if there is any abnormality

Generally, lochia stops around 3 weeks. In this case, the possibility of late postpartum bleeding needs to be ruled out. If the bleeding is more than your menstrual period, go to the hospital for treatment at any time.
