After delivery, the decidua of the uterus, especially the decidua of the embryonic appendages, falls off, and the blood, necrotic decidua and other tissues are discharged through the vagina, which is called postpartum lochia. Under normal circumstances, postpartum lochia can be discharged within three weeks after giving birth. If it continues to discharge after more than three weeks, it is called "unclear lochia". In the TCM book “The Heart of Pregnancy and Childbirth” it is mentioned: “Because the menstruation is damaged during childbirth, the deficiency is insufficient and cannot be controlled, or the bad blood does not stop, then the good blood will not calm down and will flow down together, and will not stop for a long time.” Therefore, postpartum lochia that does not stop is often related to “deficiency” or “blood stasis”.
