If you are having heavy bleeding that long after birth, you are doing too much. Climb into bed with your baby, and don't do anything for a few days but nurse and rest. Stay hydrated, and eat well (lots of protein). Keep off your feet, and ask friends and relatives to help with household chores for a couple more weeks.
If after a day or two of staying off your feet and getting lots of rest the bleeding doesn't lighten up, you will need to see your doctor.
NOTE: If you are not breastfeeding, it is possible to have your first period this soon after delivery. The first period after delivery can be heavier than normal. But it should lightenvup after a couple of days, as a regular period would.
The clotting time must be between 3 and 8 minutes to be in normal range
Women bleed for different amounts of time after a tubal ligation. if you are heavily bleeding after 4 days, you should see a physician as soon as possible.
It is necessary to have normal clotting factors (check bleeding time, clotting time, prothrombin time). It is necessary to detect internal bleeding. To prevent Gastrointestinal bleeding measures like deworming or other appropriate measures to prevent chronic or acute blood loss are to be taken. This is done surgically or by promoting clotting or preventing the cause of hemorrhage.
In diabetes, high blood sugar levels can damage blood vessels and interfere with the normal clotting process. Additionally, diabetes can lead to changes in blood composition that affect the clotting mechanism, making it less effective. This increased risk of impaired clotting in diabetes can result in difficulties in stopping bleeding and an increased risk of excessive bleeding.
A healthy gene does not have mutations that disrupt normal blood clotting factors. A gene that causes hemophilia has mutations that affect the production or function of blood clotting factors, leading to difficulty in blood clotting and increased risk of bleeding.
Hemophilia is a genetic blood disorder that affects the blood's ability to clot. This results in prolonged bleeding and difficulty stopping bleeding after an injury. There are different types of hemophilia, such as hemophilia A and hemophilia B, which are caused by deficiencies of specific clotting factors.
It prevents normal blood clotting, which results in severe bruising from minor bumps and severe bleeding from minor cuts and scrapes. It is usually fatal without continuing treatment with transfusions and medications to assist clotting.
Coagulation time is important in assessing the clotting ability of blood. It helps in diagnosing conditions related to bleeding disorders or clotting disorders. Monitoring coagulation time is essential in managing patients on anticoagulant therapy or undergoing surgery to prevent excessive bleeding or clot formation.
Yes, it is normal to experience clotting during your period. Clotting can occur when the blood flow is heavy and the blood clots before it exits the body.
Longer clotting times, its a clotting disorder.
A hemophiliac is someone with uncontrolable bleeding. Hence the definiont, then the person would have a below normal coagulation time.
Platelets are a component of blood which are involved in blood clotting which stops bleeding and stops infection. However, if clotting occurs during the normal circulation of the blood, the clot might lodge in some blood vessel, cutting of the blood supply to vital organs, such as the heart.
