Patient's question:
I want to ask that I had a C-section on September 1st, and my lochia cleared up for 4 days on September 10th. Then on the 14th, I drank black fungus red dates soup, and in the afternoon, I started bleeding red again. It continued for three days, but the amount was not as much as a normal period—more like half the amount of my usual period in one day! Later, I stopped drinking it. On the 17th morning, I ate it again, and in the afternoon, there was some red discharge, but the amount was very small. Others say black fungus helps remove blood clots, so should I continue eating it or not?Doctor's answer:
After a cesarean section, it is possible to consume black fungus. Black fungus generally does not have the effect of invigorating blood circulation and removing blood stasis, but due to its iron content, it can be used in the treatment of iron deficiency anemia caused by improper diet. Cesarean section brings significant harm to patients, and once symptoms are detected, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. At the same time, patients should pay close attention to self-care, eat more fruits and vegetables, and avoid foods. It is hoped that cesarean section patients can receive professional treatment.
