Patient's question:
During pregnancy, it's always particularly uncomfortable, and morning sickness is also very severe. How long does lochia last after a cesarean section?Doctor's answer:
Generally, it takes about three weeks to clean up, but some postpartum women may extend to six weeks due to physical weakness. If it still persists beyond six weeks, it is called incomplete lochia, which is mostly caused by cold stagnation and blood stasis. It is often accompanied by lower back pain, lower abdominal heaviness, and cold pain. If lochia discharge is not smooth, it can affect uterine involution and even impact overall recovery. Taking Shenghua Pills orally can be effective.
