Bleeding after exercise 6month post c section??

[csectal]

Anybody else experienced this?

I'm 6 months post c section next week and whenever I do any form of exercise I start to bleed afterwards (old blood not fresh) ... surely things are healed enough after 6 months? I was given go ahead after 6 weeks so very confused why it's happening

Thanks!

6 months seems like a long time, I think I would mention to go. Hopefully nothing but can't be too careful

This sounds unusual to me. I bled a lot for about 6 weeks but then nothing, even after exercise.

Yeah I think I'll speak to them. I'm on the pill so unsure if it's just 'breakthrough bleeding' or to do with that but it stops once I don't exercise for a couple of days. Thanks for your reply ☺️

Thank you for your reply. I'll speak to gp ☺️

Hi OP any news on what your GP said it was? I’m currently going through the same. Bleeding after exercise at 3months post partum. I’m reluctant to go to the doctors as they’ll probably dismiss it as a period as they did previously

Hi How did it go? I actually had the same issue. The doctor didn’t seem very concerned. She suggested I should do low impact workouts instead of doing abs workouts for few weeks, which I did but today I did high intensity followed by abs workouts and now I have spotting. I’m no longer breast feeding and my baby is 5 and half months old.

Hi Nahlak, how did it go? I’ve had the same thing and dr suggested doing different exercises for few weeks which I did. But today I decided to do high intensity and abs workouts and having the same issue.

Thank you for posting this.

I've just done my first workout 3 months post cesarian and the same is happening to me. I was quite concerned as I wasn't told to expect any op related bleeding after exertion after the initial 6 weeks and I feel 100% recovered otherwise.

Suffice to say I won't be doing any more workouts like that, I hope I haven't done myself any damage.

How are you all getting on? Did it stop?

Hi

wondering how this went for you?
I am nearly 4 months post partum and started doing some core workouts, as I felt pretty healed, however I have now starting bleeding mid cycle which I think is because of the exercise as I’ve had two periods before this.

its been a few days and I’m still bleeding, not heavy and it’s mostly brown with some red mixed in.

when did this ease up for you?

I'm going to stop working out now as seriously panicking I’ve done some damage!
