How long after a C-section can you wear a body shaper?

Patient's question:

I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? How long after a C-section can I wear a shaping garment?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, it is best to use abdominal binders two months after a C-section. It is recommended to allow the body to naturally recover before using them, as abdominal binders or shapewear exert certain pressure on the body to tighten fat and loosen muscles. After giving birth, the body is relatively weak, and all functions need to naturally recover before use for better internal health. The occurrence of gynecological diseases not only affects the patient's health but can also lead to the development of gynecological conditions. Therefore, it is best to have a routine check-up in the gynecology department of the hospital, identify the cause, and receive targeted treatment. Pay attention to dietary regulation, consuming light and easily digestible foods, and avoid spicy, stimulating, and cold foods.
