Heavy period after c-section

Heavy period after c-section

It is not uncommon for a woman to experience heavy bleeding after a c-section, especially in the first few days. This is due to the fact that the uterus is being shed of its lining as it contracts back to its normal size. However, if you are concerned about the amount of bleeding you are experiencing, it is important to speak to your doctor or midwife. They will be able to assess the situation and provide you with the appropriate care. In some cases, you may need to take medication to help control the bleeding. It is also important to get plenty of rest and avoid any strenuous activity until the bleeding has subsided.
