How long does it take for lochia to drain?

Do you know what lochia is? In fact, most people do not know, unless you are a mother, in fact, for mothers, lochia is a relatively common thing, so it is not too alarming, but also be careful not to get infected, otherwise Dangerous. Next, let's see what lochia is.

Lochia refers to the discharge of tissues such as the fetus and placenta during childbirth, and the decidua is also discharged from the uterine cavity. When the decidua is discharged, it is accompanied by blood (red blood cells), some bacteria, epithelial cells and other substances, which is called lochia. This is a normal physiological phenomenon and nothing to worry about. In fact, women are very weak after giving birth, so at this time, they are also very easy to get sick. At this time, mothers should be given extra care, and they should also pay attention to maintaining their mood. They should not be pessimistic. Sometimes lochia is also discharged. So do you know how long it usually takes to discharge lochia?

When to finish lochia is based on individual constitution. Some mothers get rid of lochia in just a week, while others take around two months and some around three months. However, the lochia that is usually eliminated about 3 weeks after giving birth is clean. As long as it is normal, even three months, there is no need to panic. Normal lochia has some bloody smell, but it doesn't taste bad.

After the baby is born, the mother's uterine lining sheds, and the mucus secreted by the uterus also flows out of the vagina. It stinks. In the first week after childbirth, the lochia is large and bright red in color, it contains a lot of blood, small blood clots and necrotic decidua, called red lochia. Within 1 week to half a month, the blood volume of the lochia decreases, and more necrotic decidua, cervical mucus, vaginal secretions, and bacteria cause the lochia to turn into a reddish slurry.
