What are the differences between a stillbirth and a miscarriage?

Patient's question:

What are the differences between a D&C (Dilation and Curettage) and a miscarriage? If you don't want the child in your belly, should you have a D&C or a miscarriage?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, if you really do not want to have children, you can choose to have an abortion. After an abortion, if a color Doppler ultrasound reveals residual limbs in the uterine cavity, a uterine clearance should be performed. Uterine clearance and miscarriage are two different concepts. If you want to have an abortion, you can choose between painless abortion and medication-induced abortion. If the effect is not good after a miscarriage, a second uterine clearance can be performed. Wishing you good health.
