Why is the lochia black after a full moon?

Patient's question:

I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. Why is the lochia black right after the postpartum month?

Doctor's answer:

Normal lochia color changes from dark red at the beginning to light red afterward, then to yellow. The content also changes from viscous at the start to gradually decreasing. It usually lasts for about a week.
Irregular menstruation not only affects a woman's life but can also lead to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to undergo an ultrasound examination in the gynecology department of a hospital. After identifying the cause, symptomatic treatment should be administered. Additionally, pay attention to personal hygiene and maintain cleanliness in the perineal area.
