Patient's question:
Female, 29 years old, experiencing abdominal pain after a miscarriage. Later, after checking at the hospital, the doctor recommended that I undergo uterine clearance. Is a 3 cm residual tissue requiring uterine clearance?Doctor's answer:
If medication cannot remove it, a D&C (dilation and curettage) procedure is necessary. The specific timing for the D&C, the doctor's technical skill, and the patient's clinical symptoms are all closely related. Therefore, it is essential to choose a reputable and large hospital. The D&C procedure can cause certain damage to the body and the endometrium. Sterilization and anesthesia are required before the procedure. The actual D&C process only takes about one or two minutes. After the D&C, it is important to rest appropriately, avoid strenuous exercise, maintain cleanliness and hygiene in the vaginal area, and avoid spicy or irritating foods. Instead, focus on increasing nutrition.
