How long does it take for lochia to clear up after a normal delivery?

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 it takes for lochia to clear up after a natural birth?

Doctor's answer:

In your case, it might be postpartum lochia profuse, which is often caused by a naturally weak spleen qi or spleen deficiency after pregnancy, unable to control the (Chong Mai) blood; or postpartum emptying of the uterine vessels, with invasion of cold pathogens, leading to blood not returning to its proper channels. You can use Shenghua Granules for treatment, which is quite effective.
Hello, based on your description, it is likely caused by inflammation, generally related to local pathogenic bacterial infection. You can try oral Amoxicillin and Metronidazole for treatment. Rest well, avoid foods (stimulating foods), drink more water, and it will gradually improve.
