Pregnant women will have their periods some time after giving birth, but because there may be vaginal bleeding after delivery, it is impossible to distinguish whether it is menstruation or lochia. 46 days after giving birth, the body has almost recovered. So let’s find out here, how to tell if you have your period 46 days after giving birth? 46 days after giving birth, the lochia is already very small, and the color is generally dark brown or grayish white. If the blood discharged is bright red and the amount is relatively large, it can be considered as menstruation. If the mother's lochia stops being discharged, and bright red blood is discharged again on the 46th day, it is likely that the menstruation has resumed, which usually lasts for 3-7 days before it stops. However, if some pregnant women are overtired and do not get enough rest after giving birth, and do not pay attention to vaginal hygiene, it may affect the repair of the uterus, and the lochia after delivery will be intermittent and not completely discharged, and the color is sometimes bright red, which makes it difficult to distinguish whether it is lochia after delivery or menstruation. It is recommended that pregnant women go for a follow-up visit 46 days after giving birth to see if there is any residual tissue in the uterus. In addition, we should also pay attention to one situation: according to the measurement of ovulation body temperature during the first menarche after childbirth, 60% of them are actually not ovulating. To be precise, this situation is anovulatory menstruation, which cannot be regarded as a real menstrual period. Compared with normal menstruation, the bleeding and duration of the first menstruation after giving birth are longer, and the menstrual cycle is not very accurate. Therefore, if the menstruation is not normal for a period of time after giving birth, there is no need to worry. What are the types of lochia in parturients? 1. Bright red postpartum lochia In the first week after giving birth, the amount of lochia is relatively large, and the color is also very bright red, with a lot of blood, blood clots and necrotic decidual tissue, which is called bright red lochia. Stubborn lochia lasts for three to four days, the amount of abnormal uterine bleeding gradually decreases, the serum increases, and it changes into serous lochia. 2. Lochia serous After one week to within ten days, the amount of blood in the lochia is small, and the main components are necrotic decidua, cervical mucus, female secretions and bacteria, which cause the lochia to become a light red slurry. The lochia at this time is called serous lochia. Serous lochia lasts about ten days, the serum level gradually decreases, the white blood cells increase, and the lochia becomes white lochia. 3. White lochia After a dozen days to three weeks, the lochia no longer contains blood, but it will contain a large number of white blood cells, atrophic decidua, epidermal cells and bacteria, making the lochia more viscous and white in color, so it is called white lochia. The white lochia lasted for three weeks without any bleeding. |
