How is the placenta and amniotic fluid handled after a cesarean section?

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. Could you please tell me how the placenta and amniotic fluid are handled after a C-section?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, if you have a cesarean section, the placenta and amniotic fluid are generally treated as medical waste for harmless disposal. However, the placenta can also be used for medicinal purposes, and in most cases, you can apply to keep and take it with you. The occurrence of gynecological diseases not only affects women's health but can also lead to the development of gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to undergo an ultrasound examination at the gynecology department of the hospital to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment. In daily life, you should drink more water and pay attention to personal hygiene.
