Do you really need to go for a postpartum check-up 42 days later? The truth is here!

Remember to come back for a check-up 42 days after giving birth!
I believe every mother is reminded of this before leaving the hospital.
The lovely medical staff will always remind you of this.
But
are you hesitating
about whether to go?
Judging postpartum recovery by feeling? Wrong!
During pregnancy, a woman's reproductive organs (such as breasts, uterus, etc.) and various systems in the body undergo significant changes. It takes time after childbirth to return to a normal state, which is known as the postpartum period (the month of confinement). This is also an important period for physiological and psychological transition, generally lasting 42 days, while cesarean sections may require 56 days.
After resting and recuperating during the postpartum period, how is the body recovering? It cannot be judged by feeling; a scientific and comprehensive examination is needed to know.
These items need to be rechecked 42 days after childbirth!
Through gynecological internal examination and secretion testing, understand the recovery of the perineum, vaginal wounds, and cervix. Mothers who had a cesarean section also need to check the healing of the abdominal incision, and those with an episiotomy need to check the healing of the episiotomy site.
If postpartum lochia continues without stopping, it may be due to poor uterine recovery, and a color ultrasound examination is needed.
Vaginal delivery can cause varying degrees of damage to the pelvic floor muscles, ligaments, and other tissues, leading to symptoms such as urinary incontinence when laughing or uterine prolapse. If pelvic floor function is impaired and not treated in time, it can severely affect a woman's quality of life in the future.
For mothers with anemia during pregnancy and postpartum hemorrhage, a blood routine test is necessary. New mothers with heart disease, hepatitis, urinary tract infections, or other complications should undergo further examination and treatment.
Mothers with complications such as hypertension or high blood sugar during pregnancy must pay attention 42 days after childbirth.
Is milk secretion normal? Are there any lumps in the breasts? Are the nipples cracked? How is breastfeeding going? If there are any issues, be sure to go to the breast surgery department for relevant examinations.
Contraceptive guidance
This matter cannot be taken lightly; do not judge ovulation by whether menstruation occurs. If an unexpected pregnancy occurs at this time, it is harmful to both the baby and yourself.
In summary
The delivery process causes varying degrees of damage to different parts of the body.
To avoid leaving health risks
Do not hesitate, have a recheck 42-56 days after childbirth.
Seize the best 'golden period' for postpartum examination.
Be the primary responsible person for your own health.
