Patient's question:
Doctor, I had a biochemical miscarriage, but I don't know if I need a D&C. Is a D&C necessary for a biochemical miscarriage?Doctor's answer:
Biochemical pregnancy does not require a D&C. Because biochemical pregnancy occurs when the embryo fails to implant and results in a miscarriage, there will be no gestational sac inside the uterus. It is generally similar to having a normal menstrual period. However, if after a biochemical pregnancy, bleeding persists without stopping, a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) may be needed to carefully examine the uterine condition. In such cases, a D&C may also be necessary for treatment, and the specific approach should be determined based on the actual situation.
