Problem description: It has been 18 days since the caesarean section had the baby out. The lower body was clean a few days ago. My stomach hurts a bit today, and it’s bloody and dripping. Want to know how long it takes for lochia to be clean and normal after cesarean section?
Date of question: 2020-11-29
Patient information: Age: 26 Gender: Female
Lochia within 7-15 days after Caesarean section Clean is normal.
After a female undergoes a cesarean section, lochia will be discharged from the lower body. Generally, the amount of lochia discharged in the first week after surgery is more and the color is darker. After more than a week, the amount of lochia gradually decreases and the color becomes lighter. Normally, it will not exceed half a month. If there is still outflow of lochia more than half a month after delivery, it is related to the residual tissue in the inner wall of the uterus.
If the lochia persists and cannot be cleaned, go to the hospital for a B-ultrasound examination as soon as possible to determine the cause of the persistent and unclean lochia. If necessary, take blood circulation and blood stasis or uterine preservation drugs.
