What should I do if there is postpartum discharge after the flow of people?

Patient's question:

I am 25 years old. Previously, I had sex without protection, which led to pregnancy and a miscarriage. Now I have abdominal pain and my recovery is not going well. Yesterday, I had sex again and am afraid of getting pregnant again. What should I do if the lochia does not stop after an abortion?

Doctor's answer:

After childbirth, lochia generally needs more than 20 days to be expelled, so it is currently better to focus on careful observation. If the lochia does not stop for an extended period, it is necessary to consider whether the uterus has not fully recovered or if it is essential to promptly visit a public hospital's gynecology department for a thorough examination and treatment. The patient should develop a regular sleep schedule, adhere to treatment, and maintain a light diet with aerobic exercise to boost immunity and reduce the risk of illness.
