Is it necessary to wear a tummy belt after delivery?
Many women use girdle because the girdle is stretched during pregnancy and the abdomen cannot be restored to its previous state after delivery. Is the girdle really useful?
Waist seal, also called belt, is generally used in sports to prevent waist injury. Many women will use postpartum corsets to tighten their abdomen after childbirth, so as to achieve the effect of restoring shaping.
Although the band has a certain effect on postpartum abdomen, it also has many disadvantages. From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, the puerperal body is in a state of "excessive blood stasis". If you use a girdle, it will aggravate congestion, which will not only fail to achieve the purpose of losing weight, but also cause gynecological inflammation such as pelvic inflammatory disease and adnexitis. If it is a lactating woman, the girdle will also slow down the gastrointestinal peristalsis, resulting in no appetite, so that it can not absorb good nutrition, and the milk will be reduced.
Therefore, it is generally not recommended to use postpartum girdle. Even if you use a waist seal, don't wear it as a whole. You can use it during the day, but not at night.
