A member asked:

What can a woman do to stop continued bleeding months after giving birth? and is it normal?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Post-partum bleeding: "Continuous" bleeding for months after delivery may be related to retained placental fragments. See your OB physician for an exam and treatment. This may require a minor surgical procedure.
