Patient's question:
I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? How long is the safe period after giving birth?Doctor's answer:
Postpartum, the recovery of the mother's entire organs and reproductive system requires some time. The uterus generally takes about 6 weeks postpartum to return to its pre-pregnancy size, while the endometrium at the site of placental attachment typically needs 6 to 8 weeks to fully recover under normal circumstances. Therefore, sexual activity should only resume after a postpartum check-up and confirmation from a doctor that the mother has fully recovered. The occurrence of gynecological diseases not only affects a woman's life but can also lead to the development of gynecological conditions. It is best to visit the gynecology department of a hospital for a check-up, identify the cause, and receive targeted treatment. In daily life, attention should be paid to dietary adjustments, consuming light and easily digestible foods, while avoiding spicy, stimulating, and cold foods.
