When does the uterus recover after a cesarean section?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Generally, the uterus will return to normal about 56 days after childbirth. For cesarean births, the recovery may be relatively slower. The ultrasound results at 42 days showed that the uterus had recovered normally. The abdomen appears large due to the fat accumulated during pregnancy. After giving birth and during breastfeeding, the body shape usually returns to normal within about a year. Stay positive.
