Patient's question:
I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? Can I eat ice during ovulation?Doctor's answer:
Generally, the ovulation period is 14 days before the next menstrual period, and the three or four days before and after this period are considered the risky period, as the chances of pregnancy during coitus in this period are higher. The rest of the time is relatively safe.Hello, the discharge from the vagina after childbirth is called lochia. Under normal circumstances, it is completely expelled within 4 to 6 weeks postpartum. In the first few days after childbirth, the amount of lochia is relatively high, and it is bright red, hence called red lochia, also known as bloody lochia. It generally lasts for 3 to 7 days. After 3 to 5 days, the blood content decreases, and the lochia turns light red, known as serous lochia. By 10 to 14 days postpartum, the lochia appears white or light yellow, referred to as white lochia. Normal lochia has a slight bloody odor but does not smell foul. Postpartum women who have undergone cesarean delivery may experience a longer duration of lochia compared to those who delivered vaginally. The lochia should not exceed 42 days.
For your situation, you can wait for a few more days to see. If you experience any abnormal discomfort, it is advisable to visit the hospital for examination to identify the cause and rule out conditions such as retained products of conception or inflammation/infection.
