📝 Detailed Answer
This is a common concern that many patients share. I have seen many cases where starting a diet too early out of eagerness led to further physical depletion. Therefore, instead of suggesting a fixed date, I recommend first assessing the extent of your body's recovery.
The advantage of herbal weight loss in Traditional Korean Medicine (TKM) is that it doesn't just reduce weight, but restores the metabolic functions that decline after childbirth. Specifically, by resolving Eohyeol (瘀血, stagnant blood) and Dameum (痰飮, accumulated metabolic waste), you can reduce postpartum swelling and naturally manage your weight. Because this process focuses on restoring internal balance, the risk of a 'yo-yo effect' is minimized.
There are, however, important considerations. For those breastfeeding, the selection of medicinal herbs must be much more restrictive and carefully prescribed. Additionally, since Spleen Deficiency (脾虛, weakened digestive function) is common postpartum, drastically reducing caloric intake may lead to dizziness or extreme fatigue.
Ultimately, there is no single 'correct' time for everyone. Some may be ready after 100 days, while others may need a full year to recover safely. The first step is to evaluate your current recovery status and energy levels. We invite you to visit our clinic so we can carefully assess your condition and design a personalized plan together.
