#Treatment Stages

Q I'm 7 months postpartum and about to start care now. Roughly what stages does postpartum weight loss go through?

A It usually proceeds as: checking recovery status → tidying up swelling and circulation → restoring metabolism and losing weight → maintenance. Rather than losing aggressively from the start, we build up recovery first and advance step by step.

Detailed Answer

Postpartum weight loss is safe when approached step by step according to the body's recovery. First, we check what state your body is in now, whether you're breastfeeding, and whether it's a time you can push. Next, we tidy up stagnant swelling and circulation to make the body lighter, and on this foundation organize meals and activity, revive metabolism, and begin reducing weight in earnest. Finally, we establish lifestyle habits to maintain the reduced weight. The speed of each stage is adjusted to your individual recovery.

Our Korean Medicine Clinic's Perspective

At Dongjedang, we see postpartum weight loss in the order of 'clearing and reviving.' First we gently clear stagnant fluid and stagnant blood to lighten the body, then revive lowered metabolism so the weight comes down. Because we lead with recovery and proceed step by step, there is little strain and the results last long.
