Abstract

Involution is when the uterus returns to its pre-pregnancy state weighing about 60 grams. This process begins immediately after delivery of the placenta due to contractions of the smooth muscles of the uterus. Involution is caused by continuous contraction and retraction of uterine muscle fibers. The way to reduce morbidity in the postpartum period is to carry out early mobilization to accelerate uterine involution. Early mobilization or activity as soon as possible after resting for several hours and getting out of the mother's bed.
