Can I take weight loss pills two months after giving birth?

Having a child is a very difficult process. Not only does it require going through the hardship of ten months of pregnancy, but after giving birth, a woman's body is often in a very fragile period and requires careful nursing and the use of a large amount of high-nutrition medicinal materials for diet therapy to restore the woman's body to its best condition and avoid the development of disease. After giving birth, many women are still obese and are eager to lose weight. So can they take diet pills two months after giving birth?

Generally speaking, it is not recommended to take diet pills to lose weight after childbirth! Because if the baby is breastfeeding, diet pills will threaten the baby's health. Moreover, even if the baby is not breastfed, the body is weak after childbirth, and using diet pills to lose weight is also very harmful to oneself!

Diet pills mainly achieve the purpose of weight loss by reducing the body's absorption of nutrients and increasing excretion. Diet pills also affect the body's normal metabolism. It is not recommended to lose weight during breastfeeding. If a new mother takes diet pills during breastfeeding, most of the drugs will be excreted through breast milk, which is very bad for the baby!

Although you can't take diet pills after giving birth, there are many ways to lose weight after giving birth. Friends can try other weight loss methods! For example, if it is a natural delivery, the new mother can do some simple activities on the first day after giving birth, such as turning over, lifting legs, and contracting anus. These activities are very helpful for postpartum physical recovery.

Mothers who have undergone cesarean section can turn over or walk before the stitches are removed, and can only move moderately one week after the stitches are removed. One week after delivery, new mothers who return home can try to do some light housework and insist on taking a walk after meals. These activities can regulate the body's metabolism, promote the decomposition of body fat, and consume excess energy.

One month after delivery, if the body recovers quickly, the new mother can start doing some sit-ups and leg lifts in bed to exercise the abdominal and psoas muscles, and also to reduce fat in the abdomen and buttocks.

Exercise is the key to losing weight! The way to exercise is to take a slow walk like you did during pregnancy. Walking is the most reasonable way to exercise for pregnant women. Nurses in large hospitals will urge mothers to walk as soon as possible. Walking is a human instinct, the most acceptable method, and the intensity of exercise is also appropriate. Don't treat walking as an exercise. More complex and difficult exercises are best done after two months.
