Is it painful to remove the placenta after childbirth?

Patient's question:

It is said that the placenta needs to be removed after giving birth, and it is very painful. Is it true that everyone needs to have their placenta removed during labor?

Doctor's answer:

Is this the case for everyone? Under normal circumstances, after the fetus is delivered, the placenta will naturally expel on its own along with the baby. If there was endometritis in the uterus before pregnancy, the placenta may re-adhere, which would require medical intervention to remove it. There are many treatment methods for labor, but since the symptoms of patients vary, the diagnostic approaches used will also differ. Therefore, patients need to undergo timely and thorough examination and diagnosis to receive appropriate treatment.
