Patient's question:
How long does lochia last after a cesarean section? I haven't had much lochia since my cesarean section. Now it's been 32 days, and the lochia has turned red.Doctor's answer:
Normal lochia usually lasts for four to six weeks, with the bloody lochia phase being relatively short, typically lasting three to four days. If persistent bleeding is observed, it may be due to poor uterine involution. In such cases, an ultrasound should be performed to assess the condition of the uterine cavity. For cesarean section patients, while receiving professional medical treatment, they can also use folk remedies as supplementary therapy. Proper dietary habits should be maintained in daily life to avoid foods.
