What is the reason for postpartum sweating?

Postpartum, it is very common for pregnant women to increase their sweating. If excessive sweating causes clothes and bedding to get wet while sleeping, then this is postpartum sweating. The recovery time of postpartum sweating is related to the constitution of every mother. The recovery time of good constitution is relatively fast, and it can return to normal in one to two weeks, and the recovery time of weak constitution will be extended accordingly.

Causes of postpartum sweating

One to three days after delivery, the new mother does sweat a lot. If it is summer, they may get wet with a little exercise. This is because there are many physiological changes in the body after delivery, and there are many sweats in the body.

1. Increased skin blood volume during pregnancy.

During pregnancy, a lot of fluid between tissues will penetrate into blood vessels, so the blood volume will increase by 1-20%. Moreover, during pregnancy, more estrogen, vigorous adrenal function, accelerated basal metabolism of expectant mothers and vasodilation all lead to an increase in 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 returning to the human circulation.

2. Drain excess water after delivery

After delivery, the expectant mother's body metabolism and endocrine level will gradually decrease to normal level. In order to reduce the light mental burden and promote postpartum recovery, the body will discharge the water trapped in the body, and the main methods are urination and sweating. After the water is discharged, the weight will also drop rapidly, and the figure will recover a lot to some extent. Therefore, mothers don't have to worry too much. This is a normal phenomenon after childbirth.

1. In the early postpartum period, new mothers sweat significantly, often sweating just after waking up or doing a little exercise, and their clothes may get wet, but this postpartum sweating is not morbid, but a normal physiological state.

2. If you sweat heavily for a long time after delivery, it is pathological postpartum sweating. One is involuntary sweating after falling asleep, that is, postpartum night sweats. The other is spontaneous sweating during the day after delivery. In this case, even if the weather is not hot and the clothes are not worn much, the new mother may be sweating.
