How long should you take drospirenone and ethinyl estradiol tablets after a miscarriage?

Patient's question:

Because of this carelessness, after falling down, I had a miscarriage. How long should I take drospirenone and ethinyl estradiol tablets after a miscarriage?

Doctor's answer:

If this is a miscarriage that occurs in the early stages of pregnancy, especially if a D&C (dilation and curettage) procedure has been performed, it may cause some damage to the endometrium. In this case, taking drospirenone/ethinyl estradiol tablets orally can help promote the complete recovery of the endometrium and prevent intrauterine adhesions. Generally, it is recommended to take these tablets for 2-3 months. If a D&C has not been performed, it may not be necessary to take them.
