Patient's question:

Age
Detailed medical condition and consultation purpose: It has been 47 days since giving birth. Do I need to go to the hospital for a check-up?

Doctor's answer:

It is necessary. Postpartum check-ups are required at 42 days after delivery. Postpartum examinations include many items, including blood tests, urine tests, and a full physical examination. Comprehensive gynecological and obstetric examinations are also conducted. Gynecological and obstetric examinations mainly check pelvic organs to see if the uterus has returned to normal, whether the vaginal environment has returned to normal, whether there is erosion of the cervix, and whether the perineum and vaginal lacerations or suture sites have healed.
