Hi, so sorry to hear a/b your loss. I miscarried at 7 weeks. I had a dnc done today. As far as I know, you don't have to have a dnc done. I have it done because my blood count is very high (shows 7 wks pregnant) but the sonogram I had yesterday didn't see or hear my baby. My Doctor suspects an infection, she asked me to have the dnc done this morning.

God bless you. I am in such pain myself. Be strong.

i have to have d&c surgery on Friday 10-03-08 it is because of having way to many peroids a month i only go like 5 to 7 days without bleeding and thay found a ploup or something thay have to remove .........to see if it is cancer or not....pray its not anything..........so that's why i have to have a d&c

i was pregnant. but found out during the 8th week that it was not developing. this is called a missed abortion. because normally abortion should have taken place by itself. since it was taking longer i had to get a dnc done.

Yes you are asleep the 5-10 minutes it takes.

Endocervical curettage-- Biopsy performed with a curette to scrape the mucous membrane of the cervical canal.

That can only be answered by a health care provider after a review of your individual history.

You can resume normal activities within 24 hours after a DNC as long as they are not strenuous.

If you mean Dilation and Curettage, it is indicated to prevent excessive bleeding after a miscarriage. Many doctors recommend a D and C if the patient experiences heavy bleeding for several weeks after a miscarriage or if HCG levels decline too slowly.

If you are asking what happens to the woman that miscarries (needing a DNC) but was unaware she was pregnant; the answer is simple. The fact that she didn't realize she was pregnant is really moot, because whether she knew or not, a miscarriage happens for a reason. In general, regardless of her knowledge of the pregnancy, she would have miscarried anyway. As far as what happens? If the woman has miscarried, a DNC (more properly 'D&C', from the technical terms "dilation and curettage") is performed to insure the inner lining of the uterus is free of any residual tissue. If left untreated, or without the DNC, infection can set in, in addition to the terrible cramps this woman will experience from the body's natural process of trying to slough off the tissue, which is the cause of cramping. Also, in the event the tissue tears abnormally, into the uterine wall, hemorrhage could erupt. Which left untreated could be fatal. I'm not a doctor, but I've been there, many years ago. Many of the herbs used to cause a miscarriage can also be used to complete a miscarriage and avoid unnecessary surgery that may traumatize the uterus. A D&C can increase the risk of future miscarriages, so many women having fertility difficulties may prefer to use herbs as the most appropriate initial treatment after miscarriage.

The thoracic cavity is the chest cavity, and a surgeon is a doctor who specializes in surgery. Therefore, a thoracic surgeon is a doctor who has specialized in surgery of the chest cavity, often focusing on the lungs and heart.

this happened to me as well, i was pregnant for like 8 weeks or so. then i was bleeding heavily on may 8 then fainted may 10 and still bleeding heavily, a large clot of blood that look quite like a liver came out,may 12 i had a pregnancy test. it was positive. may 17 i had a check up cause im still bleeding and my tummy is beating , i thought it was a heartbeat but then the doc told me that there is no baby found inside cause she ie-d me and ultrasound me,.the cervix is not opened anymore and my uterus is low for an 8-10 week old baby. she suggest that i have trans v ultrasound for me to be sure,. i think that's a miscarriage, cause my tummy is not growing anymore. but the best way is have yourself checked up with professionals.:)

It takes 2-3 weeks and during that time nothing is allowed to go inside, no penis, fingers or tampon and no baths.

The overall rate of complications associated with radical cystectomy may be as high as 25-35%.The rate of radical cystectomy-related deaths is 1-3%. Partial cystectomy has a complication rate of 11-29%.

Dilation and curettage is also known as a D&C. Recovery from this surgery could be anywhere from one day to a few weeks.

This surgical instrument is used to scrap the vaginal wall/lining during the D&C

It is best to consult your OBGYN for the correct answer for you and your situation. But I have heard from doctors myself that a person should wait 3 cycles before trying again, thereby letting the body get back to normal. But again ask your doctor for the best answer. Good luck!!

Six month?

Dilation and curettage is typically performed by Obstetricians in order to remove the contents of the uterus. In lieu of this procedure, evening primrose, black and blue cohosh, and vitamin C can be taken. However, this only produces the desired results around 50 percent of the time.

could nausea be an after effect of a d & c without cramping or bleeding
There are several side effects after having a DNC. Some of the most severe side effects are blood clots, heavy bleeding, foul smelling discharge, and cramping.

Yes If you are pregnant and are passing blood clots, go to an emergency room immediately.

This is extremely variable, as it depends upon the degree of impingement of the spinal nerve root by a bulging or slipped disc (most commonly). Pain can be transient and brief, if the impingement is only temporary, or it can be lifelong and chronic in the case of the more severe conditions.
