Everyone knows that during pregnancy, the uterus of a pregnant woman will continue to grow because it is the place where the baby is conceived. But after the baby is born, the uterus will slowly recover. But to fully recover, it requires a certain process, and there are still many things to pay attention to during this period. So, what should we do if the uterus does not fully regress?
What to do if the uterus does not fully recover
Generally speaking, uterine recovery usually takes six weeks. Mothers with incomplete recovery should pay attention to changing their sleeping position at any time while resting in bed, and not keep the same position all the time, which can easily cause the uterus to tilt backwards. Breastfeeding can also help with the recovery of the uterus. In addition, you can also consult a doctor and eat something to help with recovery.
Urination should be done as soon as possible after childbirth to prevent incomplete recovery of the uterus; At the same time, it is also necessary to avoid lying down and resting in bed for a long time. Appropriate activities, such as walking, can also prevent incomplete uterine involution.
The harm of incomplete uterine involution
If the uterus does not fully regress, it may lead to local or systemic infections in pregnant women, and in severe cases, sepsis may also occur. At the same time, it is also easy to induce postpartum hemorrhage, and excessive bleeding can lead to shock and endanger life. The symptoms of incomplete uterine involution mainly include lower back pain, prolonged lochia with increased blood volume, and a feeling of heaviness in the lower abdomen.
