Shenghua Tang is a nourishing soup that can promote the discharge of postpartum lochia from the uterus. Many pregnant women drink Shenghua Tang after giving birth to promote the discharge of postpartum lochia as soon as possible. The effect of Shenghua Tang is still quite significant. Many people know that they need to drink Shenghua Tang after giving birth, but they don’t know how long it will take for the lochia to be discharged after taking Shenghua Tang. This article will discuss this issue.

How long does it take for the body to be discharged after taking Shenghua Tang?

It is not necessary to drink Shenghua Tang for more than 2 weeks after giving birth.

Two weeks after giving birth, the uterine wall has begun a new neonatal period. At this time, consuming Shenghua Tang, which has the function of removing blood stasis, will have a negative effect on the neonatal uterine wall, and it is easy to cause the neonatal uterine wall to be unstable and even cause bleeding.

After giving birth, the uterine muscles begin to contract, but if the uterine contraction is not good, the blood vessels continue to be open, which can easily lead to bleeding and blood clots. Within a period of time after giving birth, the uterine wall damaged during childbirth needs to be rebuilt. The whole process of uterine repair after childbirth begins 2-3 days after childbirth. Except for the part where the embryo implants at that time, the rest of the uterine wall repair occurs within 7-10 days after childbirth.

The reconstruction of the uterine wall where the embryo implants will not be complete until the thrombus is detached. Generally, the process of blood clot disappearing takes about 2 weeks, and sometimes even 6 weeks. Shenghua Tang works best during this period. Therefore, according to the progress of uterine repair, the best time to take Shenghua Tang is about 2 to 3 days after giving birth, and it will last about 7 to 10 days.
