Is rapid weight loss after childbirth considered postpartum?

Home | News | Doctor Q&A Follow Dripcare information on google news
Hello, doctor. After giving birth, 24 hours later, I felt a lack of appetite; I could only consume milk and fruit. It wasn't until over a month later that I returned to normal eating habits, and even then, I felt very hungry and ate a lot. Since giving birth, I have lost 10 kg. Can you tell me if rapid weight loss after childbirth is considered postpartum? Thank you, doctor.

Hello,

The symptom of loss of appetite after childbirth is not a pathological condition; it is a psychological state that can affect the health and spirit of the mother. Rapid weight loss after childbirth can be due to underlying health issues, so you need to consult a doctor for an accurate diagnosis. Furthermore, the cause of rapid weight loss after childbirth may be related to psychological impacts during delivery, the postpartum period, and the process of caring for a newborn. Postpartum psychological disorders can cause the mother to feel anxious, stressed, and mentally exhausted. Additionally, after childbirth, the mother may experience absorption disorders and micronutrient deficiencies, leading to a lack of appetite and rapid weight loss. Therefore, you should visit a healthcare facility to consult with a doctor to accurately determine the causes of your loss of appetite and weight loss after childbirth to find suitable solutions.

Best regards.
