Helpful and proven tips on women after giving birth”

I am 26 years old and a bank executive after giving birth to my first child last February, I noticed that I have heavier menses compared to before I got pregnant. I don’t have to change pads every hour but is there wrong with me? Is there something I must know?

There’s nothing probably with your menses; some women notice heavier menstrual flow after giving birth. Going through pregnancy, labor and birth is a life-changing experience that enhances women’s awareness of their bodily functions.

To put yourself at ease, see a doctor. Be specific about how many napkins you use a day, how long your menstrual flow lasts compared to flow prior to pregnancy, and if there are any accompanying symptoms like dysmenorrheal or pelvic pain. It would also help if you tell your doctor the specific date of delivery, the type of delivery (vaginal or abdominal), and if there were many complications.

Some doctors ask their patients to record their menstrual cycles using natural family planning charts, such as the Creighton University NatPro System, which can also help in the diagnosis of menstrual disorders. Ultrasound or hormonal tests will be recommended if necessary.
