Hemophobia - Fear of Blood

2007-03-19 13:20:38 · answer #1 · answered by Manny 4 · 0 0

Eight days after delivery it is normal to still be bleeding quite a bit however, it isn't normal for the bleeding to slow way down and then kick way back up again. If you are really active then it can cause you to start bleeding, but it shouldn't be a lot and it shouldn't be persistent. If you are passing large clots, then you should definitely go see the doctor, and don't wait about it. Excessive bleeding, often called hemorrhaging is a very serious condition that can lead to anemia and in very extreme cases, can even result in the need for a blood transfusion or death. Any bleeding that is heavier then one of your "heavy" periods after the first couple of days post-partum or any large clots, like the one you described, is a good reason to go see a doctor. If the bleeding really worries you, is heavy and persistent, or YOU pass any really large clots, it's OK to go to the ER if your doctor isn't close by or isn't available. No matter what, it would be a good idea for you to make an appointment--it's better safe then sorry I always say. :)

It could be Vasovagal syncope. Some people pass out with the stress of seeing the blood-not because they are scared of it.
