Is it necessary to clear the uterine cavity after a natural miscarriage?

Patient's question:

I am also unaware of what problem my body encountered. At one and a half months of pregnancy, it miscarried on its own. Here, I would like to consult medical experts about whether a D&C (dilation and curettage) is necessary after a natural miscarriage. If you know, please help clarify this for me. Thank you for your response.

Doctor's answer:

After a natural miscarriage, you should first go to the hospital for an ultrasound to check if it has been completely expelled. If it hasn't been completely expelled, a Dilation and Curettage (D&C) surgery is definitely necessary. After the surgery, it's important to rest and take care of your body. Pay attention to hygiene in the vaginal area. Avoid eating spicy, irritating, or extremely cold foods, and refrain from sexual activity for at least one month. The above suggestions can be used for reference.
