​There is still blood more than 40 days after delivery

There is still blood more than forty days after delivery, and it usually lasts for 3-7 days; after 3-5 days, the amount of blood in the lochia decreases and the lochia becomes slightly reddish, which is called loose lochia. 10-14 days after birth, the lochia is white or yellowish and is called white lochia. Normal lochia has a bloody smell, but it is not foul. Mothers who deliver by cesarean section are exposed to the sun longer than those who deliver vaginally. By observing the lochia, noting changes in quality and amount, color and odor, and uterine involution, you can learn whether the uterus is recovering normally. If the uterus is incomplete and bloody lochia persists for a long time, you need to go to the hospital's gynecology department and receive symptomatic treatment under the guidance of a doctor.
