The best time to contract your pelvis

During pregnancy, as the fetus gradually grows, the pelvis will be compressed, and during childbirth, the pelvis will be stretched so that the fetus can be fully delivered. When the pelvis becomes larger, it will affect the appearance, so many women are curious about the best time to repair the pelvis after giving birth.

The best time to repair the pelvis after childbirth usually starts one or two months after delivery, and it takes about half a year for the pelvis to recover to normal. During postpartum recovery, some rehabilitation treatments are usually performed to improve the pelvic recovery and contraction ability. Regardless of whether a woman chooses to give birth naturally or by cesarean section, the pelvic tendons are affected during pregnancy, so the pelvis still needs to be repaired.

In addition, if the pelvic compression is more serious and accompanied by symptoms such as abdominal prolapse or uterine prolapse, it is necessary to go to a regular hospital to seek medical help to treat the pelvic function problems to ensure that normal life will not be affected. If you don't know what to do, you can go to the hospital for a pelvic examination after the confinement period to understand whether there is any obstruction in the pelvic function.

If you want to repair your pelvis, you don't need to wear a corset for a long time. Corsets will also compress the internal organs, and doctors do not recommend this method. You should still use the doctor's effective methods to treat it through rehabilitation.

During pregnancy, women often experience relaxation of the pelvic muscles due to the stimulation of relaxin secreted by the embryo, which leads to pelvic deformation. Therefore, after giving birth, it is generally necessary to contract the pelvis to promote pelvic repair. This time is also called hip contraction. The best time to contract the hips for women who choose natural childbirth is three days after giving birth. For women who have had a caesarean section, it is usually one week after giving birth before they can consider using a restraint belt to tighten their hips, which can also prevent the uterus from falling and prolapse.
