Patient's question:
After a cesarean section, the first menstrual period was heavy. By the fourth day, it had stopped. I would like to understand what causes a heavy first menstrual period after a cesarean section to stop by the fourth day?Doctor's answer:
Your situation is likely due to endocrine disorders. It is recommended to have a sex hormone six-item test at the hospital. Hormone treatment or traditional Chinese herbal medicine should be considered. In addition to treating the cesarean section, it is advised that patients pay attention to their diet in daily life and maintain a joyful mood to enhance their physical condition and slow down the recovery process. Regular exercise should be emphasized, and a diet rich in nutritious fruits and vegetables should be consumed.
