Patient's question:
I had a cesarean section on February 19, 2019. Hello, how long does lochia need to be discharged? Generally speaking, how long does it take to discharge?Doctor's answer:
Under normal circumstances, bloody lochia lasts for 3-4 days, after which the color becomes lighter and the amount decreases. Most women will have it completely expelled around 6 weeks postpartum at the latest. Proper postoperative exercise is beneficial for full recovery and the expulsion of lochia. For cesarean section patients, daily treatment mainly involves medication. Patients can take various oral medications, supplemented by vitamins, and pay attention to their diet by eating light, soft, and liquid foods. We hope that cesarean section patients can recover as soon as possible! Thank you!
