What is the reason for blood streaks in postpartum leukorrhea?

Patient's question:

Female, 27 years old, four months postpartum. After each menstrual period, there are a few streaks of blood in the leukorrhea, but she doesn't feel any other discomfort. She wants to know what causes the blood streaks in leukorrhea after childbirth?

Doctor's answer:

If there are blood streaks in the vaginal discharge between two menstrual periods, it is likely ovulation bleeding, which is characterized by a small amount, dark brown color, and short duration, caused by low estrogen levels. It does not require treatment temporarily. There are many treatment methods for diseases, but since the patient's condition varies, the treatment approach also differs. Therefore, it is necessary for the patient to seek professional medical attention as soon as possible for detailed testing to prescribe the appropriate treatment.
