How to deal with repeated lochia after childbirth?

Patient's question:

After giving birth, the lochia keeps coming and going. It has been 50 days now. Sometimes it disappears, and sometimes it's yellow. Today, there's a bit of blood again. I don't know if it's normal.

Doctor's answer:

I'm glad to help you clarify this. According to the situation you described, you should go to the hospital for a thorough examination at postpartum day 42. There is a possibility of infection. There is a possibility of incomplete uterine involution. Pay attention to rest. Avoid overexertion. Go to a regular hospital gynecology clinic for follow-up. Based on routine gynecological examinations, additional treatment will be provided. Pay attention to vulvar hygiene and change underwear frequently. The above is advice on the question "What should I do if postpartum lochia persists?" I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
