After giving birth, they enter the traditional Chinese confinement period. During this period, new mothers need to cultivate themselves well. During this period, many new mothers found that their sweating increased significantly, so they worried about whether they had physical problems. So, what is the cause of postpartum sweating?

What reason is postpartum perspiration much

Reason 1: the blood volume of skin during pregnancy increases. During pregnancy, a lot of fluid between tissues will penetrate into blood vessels, so the blood volume will increase by 10-20%. And during pregnancy, more estrogen, adrenal function is exuberant, the basic metabolism of expectant mothers is accelerated, and blood vessels are dilated, all of which lead to the increase of skin blood volume. In addition, after the baby is born, the blood circulation of the placenta will stop, and the uterus will begin to contract, resulting in a large amount of blood back to the human circulation.

The second reason: postpartum discharge of excess water, and after birth, the body metabolism, endocrine levels of expectant mothers will gradually reduce to normal levels. In order to reduce the burden of light heart and promote postnatal recovery, the body will drain the body's retention of water, the main method is * urination and sweating. After water excretion, the body weight will drop rapidly, and the figure will recover to a certain extent. So mothers don't have to worry too much. This is a normal phenomenon after childbirth.

Reason 3: postpartum night sweats, one of the postpartum night sweats, is mainly manifested as a large amount of sweating when sleeping, and stops after waking up. This kind of sweating is quite common. If it returns to normal within a week, the body is sweating a lot in order to excrete excess water in the body as soon as possible and keep sweat glands active through nerve and endocrine regulation. This is only physiological sweating. If the recovery time is long or even as long as several months, it may be pathological sweating.
