Your problem needs evaluation.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for writing to us about it.

I can understand your concern, though.

It is really important to know that bleeding for 3 months after delivery is not normal and it needs evaluation.

Continuous bleeding due to improper contraction of the uterus ( involution of the uterus) doesn't happen properly.

You should consult another gynecologist and get your pelvic exam, complete blood test, culture to see for infection and ultrasound pelvis to see for any retained product ( placenta).

Please revert back to me with your investigations finding.

Consume adequate vitamins, iron and calcium.

Good luck.
Regards
Dr.Richa
