What should I do if my period is not clean?

Because women's uterus is damaged during childbirth, they will discharge a large amount of menstrual blood and a large amount of dirty blood. Coupled with physical fatigue, it is easy to cause unclean menstruation after childbirth. This will have a great impact on women's body and uterus in the long run and cause health hazards. It can be regulated and treated by taking medication, and appropriate examinations should also be done to observe the amount of menstrual blood.

Postpartum menstruation is not clean

1. Drug treatment

If the postpartum menstruation is not clean due to endocrine disorders, then relevant drugs should be used to regulate the endocrine system. If you realize that postpartum menstruation is not clean due to gynecological diseases, you need to actively treat the gynecological diseases. It is generally recommended to use Gongxuening to treat irregular menstruation, because Gongxuening has the effects of stopping bleeding, cooling blood, clearing heat, removing blood stasis, removing dampness and relieving pain. It can treat bleeding caused by poor uterine contraction and bleeding caused by chronic pelvic inflammatory disease. In addition, medicines like Motherwort Granules, Buzhong Yiqi Pills, Shiquan Dabu Pills, etc. all have certain therapeutic effects.

2. Surgical treatment

It is generally recommended to have an ultrasound examination 42 days after delivery to check whether there are any residues in the uterine cavity. If there are residues, which cause the menstruation to be unclean after delivery, a uterine curettage surgery is required to completely remove the residues in the uterus and allow the endometrium to grow normally. After the endometrium returns to normal, the menstruation will also be clean. If the menstrual period is not clean after delivery and the bleeding is heavy, the uterus may need to be removed if necessary.

How long does it take for menstruation to be normal after giving birth?

Regardless of whether you are breastfeeding or not, the first few menstrual periods after delivery are usually not very regular. The intervals between periods and the amount of menstruation may be different from before pregnancy, but they will become stable after a few times. If the mother's menstrual cycle is very disordered for a long time after childbirth, she must consult a gynecologist in time to avoid ignoring other physiological problems. So how long does it take for menstruation to be normal after childbirth?

The resumption of menstruation after childbirth varies from person to person. Some may resume menstruation as early as 6-8 weeks after childbirth, while others may resume menstruation as late as one or one and a half years after childbirth. Moreover, menstruation may become irregular due to the body's hormonal adjustments. The prolactin produced during breastfeeding will inhibit ovulation and also have a certain impact on menstruation. Therefore, breastfeeding has the effect of delaying menstruation. Generally, menstruation will resume on average 5-6 months after breastfeeding.

Therefore, if the mother is not breastfeeding, it is normal for menstruation to come within 6 to 8 weeks after delivery. Research data show that 40% of mothers who did not breastfeed resume ovulation 6 weeks after delivery, while only about 35% of mothers have not resumed ovulation and menstruation 8-12 weeks after delivery. About 25% of breastfeeding mothers will resume ovulation and menstruation 12 weeks after delivery, and most breastfeeding mothers usually take until 18 weeks to fully resume ovulation function. It is sometimes difficult to clinically determine the exact time of the first menstrual period after delivery, and a small number of women will begin to have intermittent bleeding of small to moderate amounts immediately after delivery.

How long does it take to get your period after a cesarean section?

After a caesarean section, new mothers’ uterus and ovaries have not yet recovered, so the amount of menstruation during the first period is small. This is normal, so mothers should not be too nervous. Mothers should pay attention to observe and record it. Many people need 3-4 menstrual periods before they can gradually return to normal frequency and amount. Do you know how long it takes to get your period after a cesarean section?

The resumption of menstruation after cesarean section is related to whether the mother is breastfeeding, the length of breastfeeding, the mother's age and the ability of ovarian function to recover. Generally speaking, for those who are not breastfeeding, menstruation usually resumes 6-10 weeks after delivery, and ovulation resumes on average around 10 weeks after delivery. The menstrual cycle of breastfeeding mothers is delayed. Some never have menstruation during the breastfeeding period, while others have menstruation after several months. On average, ovulation resumes 4-6 months after delivery. Ovulation may have resumed before menstruation resumes, so if you have sexual intercourse, you must take contraceptive measures.

How long does it take to get your period after a normal birth?

Expectant mothers who give birth naturally have a little confusion after giving birth, that is, how long will it take for the first menstruation to come after a normal birth? Some mothers will go online to look up some related questions themselves, but the answers they get are not consistent. Some say it will be three months, some say it will be six months, and some say it will be even shorter, saying it will come after one month. Every mother's situation is different, so there is no very clear time for menstruation after a normal birth.

Generally speaking, women who give birth naturally will start menstruating 6-8 weeks after delivery, and the amount of the first menstrual period after delivery varies from person to person. For mothers who breastfeed, breastfeeding increases the level of prolactin in the body, inhibits ovulation, and causes menstruation to come later. They may also experience irregular menstruation, variable menstrual flow, and unstable menstrual timing. Generally, the menstrual cycle will return to normal in 2-3 months. If you are overweight, under too much mental stress, or have ovarian dysfunction problems, you may experience irregular menstruation or amenorrhea after childbirth.
