How many days after delivery can the lochia be discharged?

After a woman gives birth, whether you choose a natural birth or a caesarean section, you will feel like you are having your period for a long period of time, but in fact it is the discharge of lochia. In other words, after a woman gives birth, there will be some waste products such as accumulated blood, embryonic fragments, fetal membranes, etc. in the uterus. In order for the uterus to recover as soon as possible after giving birth, all these waste products in the uterus need to be discharged. Only after all these wastes are discharged can the uterus be repaired quickly and stronger. Therefore, in order to expel the lochia as soon as possible after giving birth, after the pregnant woman is pushed back to the hospital ward, the doctor will immediately tell the relatives and the pregnant woman to press the abdomen, promote uterine contraction, and promote the discharge of lochia. The discharge of lochia after childbirth is related to postpartum recovery. How long does it take for the discharge to be good for pregnant women?

How many days after giving birth will it take for the lochia to be completely discharged?

Because the delivery methods are different, coupled with different physical fitness, maternal diet and other aspects are different, which will affect the discharge of postpartum lochia.

According to normal rules, the lochia can be discharged completely about three weeks after giving birth, but for some pregnant women it may take longer, about 6 weeks. In other words, it is normal to control it within 3 to 6 weeks.

But if the lochia has not been discharged completely 42 days after giving birth, it means that there is something abnormal. It may also be that there is something abnormal in the uterus. You must see a doctor for examination in time.

Pregnant women can easily discharge postpartum lochia if they do these two things well:

1. Promote milk secretion as soon as possible and insist on breastfeeding: As mentioned in the above article, in order to discharge lochia as soon as possible, you need to press the pregnant woman's abdomen gently, which is actually to promote uterine contraction and thus promote the discharge of lochia. In order to promote uterine contractions, pregnant women are also expected to adhere to breastfeeding after delivery. When the baby sucks the nipple, it will immediately stimulate the uterus, causing uterine contractions, which is conducive to the discharge of lochia.

2. Pay attention to the diet of the mother: The diet of the mother will also affect the discharge of lochia after delivery. During the confinement period, you must eat more light and nourishing ingredients and avoid cold foods.

How can pregnant women expel lochia:

In fact, the time of lochia discharge after giving birth is generally different according to the different bodies of pregnant women. In fact, if you want to end the lochia discharge stage as soon as possible, drinking brown sugar water or drinking motherwort are both good choices, because these two things can very well help discharge the lochia in the body. Generally, lochia can be divided into three categories, red lochia, serous lochia and white lochia, and these three types are also regarded as representatives of different stages, and the duration of these three types of lochia is also different. In fact, generally when it comes to the white lochia stage, it also means that the lochia period is about to end, so why not choose to get up and do some exercise, because proper exercise is also conducive to the discharge of lochia. Therefore, if you want to expel lochia as soon as possible, you can improve your health through special food to speed up the excretion of lochia, or do more exercise when you have nothing to do.
