Patient's question:
I am very scared when this happens. I often have lower abdominal pain and don't know how to solve it, so I came here for consultation. Could you please tell me how long after a natural birth can one have sex?Doctor's answer:
Postpartum uterus and vaginal recovery time is 42 days, so if postpartum lochia has stopped, sexual activity can be resumed. However, contraceptive measures must be taken regardless of whether menstruation returns or not.In your case, it may be postpartum lochia prolongation. This condition is often caused by a naturally weak spleen qi or spleen deficiency after pregnancy, which fails to control the (Chong Mai) blood; or postpartum empty uterine vessels with cold invasion, leading to blood not returning to its proper path.
Bianhuo Granules can be used for treatment, and it is quite effective.
