The endometrium is an important component of the female uterus, and a healthy endometrium is essential for menstruation and childbirth. Some women are concerned about recurrent bleeding in their lower body after giving birth, and may also consider whether there are health issues with the endometrium. So, can postpartum endometrial thinning lead to recurrent bleeding?
1. The endometrium in women during the short postpartum period is relatively thin, and the uterine wall is also relatively soft, but this is not the reason for recurrent vaginal bleeding. For recurrent bleeding, it should be considered that it is caused by other reasons, such as common causes, which may be related to secondary uterine infections after childbirth.
2. If recurrent vaginal bleeding occurs during the postpartum period and within two weeks, it should mainly be considered as physiological postpartum bleeding, as this is the stage of bloody lochia discharge, which is a normal situation. Attention should be paid to the cleanliness and hygiene of the perineum, frequent cleaning of the affected area, and timely replacement of sanitary pads and underwear. Keeping the area clean and dry can prevent postpartum inflammation and infection.
3. If there is recurrent vaginal bleeding for more than two weeks after delivery, it indicates a higher possibility of secondary infection in the uterine cavity. Pregnant women in this situation should not delay and seek timely medical attention for postpartum follow-up. Targeted anti infective treatment should be given promptly after diagnosis through methods such as secretion testing and gynecological ultrasound.
