What should I do if I have a decreased menstrual flow and bloating after childbirth?

Patient's question:

Postpartum with low menstrual flow and abdominal bloating, period lasting 7 days, almost no flow on the first day, normal on the third day, and very little flow with white color in the later days. What could be the reason?

Doctor's answer:

Within two or three months after childbirth, menstruation may be irregular. If this condition persists for a year postpartum, it is advisable to visit a hospital for a check-up. If you are still not at ease, it is recommended that you seek a detailed examination at a regular hospital. After a thorough ultrasound examination, you will be able to determine the specific cause. It is essential to pay attention to personal hygiene, rest well, and drink plenty of water. For gynecological patients, in addition to symptomatic treatment, it is also important to focus on self-care training, such as maintaining cleanliness, avoiding sexual intercourse, and eating less spicy and irritating foods.
