How long does menstruation return after a cesarean section?

Patient's question:

It has been almost two months since the caesarean section, but my period has not ended yet. However, there is no redness, just dark, like mud. How long does the period take to end after a caesarean section?

Doctor's answer:

It has been two months since the cesarean section, and the menstrual period has not yet ended. Rest is important, as it may indicate that the uterus has not fully recovered. An ultrasound examination is recommended. Nutritional intake should be comprehensive, and Ajiao Buqi Granules can be taken to replenish qi. Avoid consuming extremely cold foods. Please monitor closely.
Generally, menstruation returns four to seven months after a cesarean section. Patients facing the risks of cesarean delivery should actively undergo thorough examinations and treatments without avoiding medical visits. If the condition does not improve after prolonged treatment, the treatment plan should be adjusted promptly.
