QuestionI just had a c-section over two weeks ago and feel great, almost totally recovered. The bleeding is light now and brown, but would like to use tampons, can I?
AnswerNo, I don't recommend it. I would, however, recommend discussing the possibility with your doctor at your next visit. Depending on how everything checks out, it may be an option. However, I wouldn't take the chance without a doctor's green light- embolism can be fatal and may still be a possibility even with a c-section, especially if you had a 'trial of labor' first.
Please let me know if I can help you further or with anything else.
Best wishes,
