Patient's question:
High reward: I've been 40 days postpartum, and since giving birth, there has been blood-like discharge from my vagina! What is that? How long will it last? Are there any side effects? What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Hello, postpartum lochia generally lasts for 4-6 weeks. Bloody lochia usually lasts for 3-4 days, serous lochia lasts for about 10 days, and white lochia lasts for about 3 weeks. It is normal to have a bloody smell but no odor. If there are any abnormal symptoms, consider whether it is caused by infection or intrauterine residue. In your case, it is recommended to undergo an ultrasound examination, which is likely related to uterine atony. It is advised to take Chinese angelica.
