Which department should I go to for caesarean section review?

Women generally need to undergo a postpartum check-up after giving birth, because the postpartum check-up is mainly to rule out whether there is fluid accumulation in the female pelvis or whether there is a problem with the uterus. Especially after a caesarean section, a follow-up examination is needed, because caesarean section may bring some sequelae to the female body, and these sequelae need to be checked in time. So what department should I go to when I go to the hospital for a postpartum checkup?

You can go to the gynecology department for postpartum check-up, see a general gynecologist, not the obstetrics and gynecology department. Postpartum check-ups include many items. In addition to routine blood tests, urine tests and a full physical examination, a comprehensive gynecological and obstetric examination is also required. Gynecological and obstetric examinations mainly check the pelvic organs to see whether the uterus has returned to normal, whether the vaginal environment has returned to normal, whether the cervix is ​​eroded, whether the lacerations or sutures of the perineum and vagina have healed, etc.

A follow-up examination will be conducted 42 days after the cesarean section. The main items to be checked are the recovery of the vagina and cervix, as well as the recovery of the uterus after a color ultrasound. A blood test will be done to see if there is anemia, and an electrocardiogram will be checked. This is also based on the specific situation. There is no special preparation and no need to fast. You need to do an ultrasound and check the secretions. You don't need to be fasting, it's okay, but you do need to hold your urine.

You can go to the gynecology department or the obstetrics and gynecology department for cesarean section follow-up. Generally speaking, a postpartum check-up is to check the recovery after delivery. In some places, blood tests and B-ultrasounds will be performed. The first follow-up check is at the postpartum rehabilitation clinic. At this time, the main focus is to check the damage to the pelvic floor muscles and do a pelvic floor muscle examination. After 42 days, check the prolapse condition and the recovery of your wound. Do a B-ultrasound as required to check the uterine environment and see if there is any residual phenomenon.
