Question:

Hello, I gave birth over two months ago and am still experiencing bleeding. I went to the hospital and received medication and an injection, but the bleeding returned after two days. What should I do?

Answer:

Hello! I understand you're worried because you're still seeing blood even though it's been over 2 months since giving birth, and you've tried hospital treatment already. Here's simple guidance: 1. Is it normal? Bleeding usually stops within 4-6 weeks after giving birth. Bleeding that continues beyond 2 months needs attention. 2. What to do now: Please go back to the hospital or see a doctor again, especially if bleeding restarted after treatment. The doctor might need to check if anything remains inside or if there's another cause. 3. Important signs to watch for (seek urgent help if you notice these): Heavy bleeding (soaking pads quickly) Bad smell from the bleeding Fever or strong stomach pain You're doing exactly the right thing by asking and checking again. It's important to see your doctor once more to be safe. Hang in there—you've got this! 😊 This advice is general guidance and doesn't replace a direct consultation with your doctor.
