Is it normal to have lochia two months after a C-section?

Patient's question:

My wife still has lochia after a cesarean section, and we don't quite understand. We want to ask if it's normal to have lochia two months after a cesarean section?

Doctor's answer:

After a cesarean section, having lochia for one month is normal. If after two months, in addition to lochia, there are other symptoms, it may be related to poor uterine contraction. It is recommended to go to the hospital in a timely manner for an ultrasound examination to closely observe the complete recovery of the uterus. Based on the examination results, medication may be prescribed if necessary for treatment. Additionally, abdominal massage can be performed to complement the treatment, which will help stabilize the symptoms.
