Patient's question:
I am 20 days postpartum today. On the 10th day, my menstruation almost stopped. Only discharge!! Around the 16th day, my menstruation intensified again. It has been present these past few days and quite heavy. What is going on? Urgent, urgent, urgent... Thank you, doctor, for clarifying this.Doctor's answer:
Based on the information you provided, it may indicate irregular shedding of the uterine lining! Since you've just given birth, your uterus hasn't fully recovered yet! Irregular shedding of the uterine lining is normal as long as the bleeding isn't excessive and there isn't severe abdominal pain. You can wait and see. You still need to return for a follow-up check-up at 42 days! The above advice is for the question "How should I treat excessive discharge on the 20th day after giving birth?" I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
