When bacteria enter the body, multiply, and trigger a response in the body, an infection results. An infection needs to happen in three ways: Source: Habitats of infectious (germ) agents (e.g., sinks, surfaces, human skin) A person who is susceptible and who has a point of entry for germs.
The majority of postpartum infections are caused by physiologic and iatrogenic injuries to the abdominal wall, reproductive, genital, and urinary systems that happen after childbirth or abortion. These injuries allow germs to enter these normally sterile areas.
