What to do if lochia is not clean after miscarriage

If you find that the lochia is not clear after a miscarriage, then you should pay attention to analyze and understand the cause so that you can treat and solve it scientifically. After the miscarriage, you must pay attention to the doctor's advice and use some medicine to help discharge the lochia and promote uterine contraction.

1. What to do if lochia does not stop after miscarriage

1. If surgical abortion or medical abortion is performed in the early stage of pregnancy, if the embryonic tissue is not completely expelled, some embryonic tissue may remain in the uterine cavity. Clinically, it manifests as continuous vaginal bleeding after miscarriage, with a relatively large amount of bleeding, and a persistently positive urine pregnancy test.

2 If after an artificial abortion, you find that the lochia is not flowing completely and there is always a trickle of bleeding, it is recommended that you go to the obstetrics and gynecology department of the hospital for treatment as soon as possible to avoid heavy bleeding due to prolonged time, which may lead to life-threatening situations. You must treat it with caution.

After an artificial abortion, you must follow the treatment prescribed by the doctor and take the medicine on time. This will allow the lochia to flow out as soon as possible, promote the contraction of the uterus, and make the uterus recover as soon as possible. Otherwise, if the contraction of the uterus is affected, it will not be easy to drain the lochia.

2. How long does it take for lochia to be clean after caesarean section?

Under normal circumstances, the lochia from caesarean section will be clear about 20 days after delivery. The lochia has a bloody smell but is not smelly. If lochia recurs 30 days after caesarean section and is accompanied by a foul odor, abdominal pain, fever, etc., it is possible that the uterus, ovaries, fallopian tubes, or vagina are infected. If the amount of lochia increases day by day, the color gradually turns red and darker, or there are bruises, accompanied by uterine bleeding, and vaginal trauma, it may also be due to infection that causes the lochia to remain unclean for a long time. If you experience residual lochia after a caesarean section, you should take it seriously and go to the hospital for examination and treatment in time.

3. How long does it take for lochia to be clean after normal delivery?

After normal delivery, lochia will generally be completely discharged 4-6 weeks after delivery, with a total volume of about 500-1000ml. After a normal delivery, the lochia has a bloody smell but no odor. However, there are large individual differences, and the amount of lochia is also discharged in "stages". If lochia does not clear up for a long time after a normal delivery, it is suspected that there is an infection and timely examination and treatment should be carried out. In addition, some mothers may mistake menstruation for lochia, so be careful to distinguish them. If the color changes from red to light red and then to white, it proves to be lochia, otherwise it may be menstruation.
