Patient's question:
I gave birth on September 12th. During the postpartum period, I didn't have any bleeding for about ten days, but then it came back a few days later. This happened twice in a row. After the postpartum period, I had intercourse with my husband and experienced bleeding, which also stopped after a few days and then returned again. It has been continuous until the day before yesterday when I had spotting again. It's different from the bleeding in the second half of the postpartum period. Now, I don't know if it's a very heavy menstrual period, but the amount is not much. I haven't felt anything coming out, but when I use toilet paper, the sanitary pad is stained with blood. I hope the doctor can give me some advice. Is it necessary to go to the hospital for a follow-up examination in this case?Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you described, since giving birth, the only abnormal symptom you have experienced is bleeding. I suggest you don't get anxious and relax your mind. It is best to go to the hospital for an ultrasound examination. Based on the detailed examination results, follow the doctor's advice.The above is the suggestion for the question "Is the bleeding after intercourse after giving birth the same as menstruation?" I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
