If repair treatment is not done in time, it will easily increase the chance of reproductive tract infection and cause a variety of gynecological diseases.

Postpartum pelvic recovery and vaginal tightening methods

1. Opening practice

Effect: It can enhance women's sensation of the uterus, vagina and pelvic muscles.

① Lie on your back, bend your knees, spread your thighs, gently spread your labia, put your hands on your thighs, and then move them to the base of your legs, while bending your hips and knees as much as possible, and then slowly straighten your thighs. Feels very comfortable.

② Lie on your back with your legs apart and slightly bent. Place your left hand on your lower left abdomen, relax your shoulder blades, and tense the inner thigh muscles. Move your knees in slow circles to create pleasure in the inner thighs. When you feel this, focus your attention on your pubic protuberance and push your pubic bone up, but keep your buttocks on the mat.

2. Pelvic exercises

Function: The forward and backward movement of the pelvis is very important for exercising the pelvic and abdominal muscles.

Half squat, bend your knees slightly, place your feet about 60 cm apart, and put your hands on your hips. Inhale and push your pelvis forward; exhale, pull your pelvis back while sticking your buttocks out as far as possible. Repeat 10 times.

3. Anal lifting exercise

Function: It can enhance the vaginal contraction ability and effectively control postpartum urinary incontinence and urine leakage.

Concentrate your mind, tighten your abdomen, and exhale slowly. At the same time, use your mind to consciously pull your anus up. When the air in your lungs is exhaled as much as possible, hold your breath and keep your anus pulled up for 2 to 3 seconds. Then relax your whole body and let the air enter your lungs naturally. Rest for 2 to 3 seconds, and then repeat the above movements.

For postpartum pelvic recovery, the above methods need long-term persistence to be effective. As for vaginal tightening, postpartum vaginal relaxation is mainly related to the rupture and damage of vaginal elastic fibers caused during delivery.
