How long after a normal birth can you practice yoga?

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 long after a vaginal birth can I start practicing yoga?

Doctor's answer:

If you have a vaginal birth, you can start light postpartum exercises within a few days. For a cesarean section, it is generally recommended to start light postpartum exercises two weeks later, gradually increasing the intensity. To reach pre-pregnancy exercise intensity, it is best to wait six months after a vaginal birth and one year after a cesarean section.
This separation does not necessarily guarantee an accurate determination of the gender; it is usually related to genetic inheritance. It is recommended to wait for a few weeks and then have an ultrasound check-up at the hospital. It is recommended to consume Tianma Hongyu (Ginkgo Biloba Red Carp Soup) internally.
