Question
Why does the menstrual flow become very light after childbirth?
Answer
Based on the described situation, it may be due to thinning of the uterine lining after childbirth, which leads to reduced menstrual flow. Thinning of the uterine lining is also related to the hormones secreted by the ovaries. From a physiological perspective, irregular menstruation during the postpartum recovery period is normal without any special circumstances. It is advisable to observe for a period of time. If this continues, it is recommended to go to the hospital for a detailed examination and symptomatic treatment. In the meantime, you can eat more foods that supplement Qi and blood.
