What is the cause of postpartum bleeding after a caesarean section?

Patient's question:

At 49 days post-caesarean section, on the first day after menstruation, if you had sexual intercourse without breastfeeding, can you get pregnant? What is the reason for bleeding after sexual intercourse?

Doctor's answer:

You can resume sexual activity starting from the second month postpartum. However, in your case, it is important to consider the possibility of bleeding due to incomplete menstrual recovery or poor uterine contraction, and seek medical examination promptly. Use contraceptive measures during sexual activity. For severe cesarean section cases, it is recommended to consult a doctor immediately and follow medical advice for prompt treatment. Avoid blindly relying on advertisements or herbal remedies, as this may worsen the condition. The above advice is for reference only.
