I'm two weeks postpartum after my C-section, and I've noticed that wearing the tummy belt causes vaginal bleeding. Should I keep using it, or is this something I should be worried about?

Discontinue wearing the tummy belt immediately, as it may be causing increased pressure on your cervix or uterus, leading to vaginal bleeding; instead, focus on gentle postpartum exercises, like pelvic tilts and deep breathin

I'm really worried about my irregular periods. Earlier this year, a doctor had me do a PCOD panel test, and while all my levels looked fine, the ultrasound showed Im slightly polycystic. I was on Meprate and then APCODOBIS for a couple of months, and they helped with my periods. But the moment I stopped, the irregularity came back. I'm also quite heavy for my age, weighing around 98 kgs, and I'm 5.5 tall. I know I need to focus on exercising and eating right, but my job has been so hectic that it's been tough to fit in time for that. Now, I'm ready to get serious about this. Could you give me some advice on how I can get my period this month and shed some weight over time?
