Patient's question:
I had a vaginal ultrasound and blood test due to vaginal bleeding, and both results were normal. The doctor recommended a D&C (dilation and curettage) to examine some secretions. Is a D&C the same as an abortion? Do I need to rest for a period of time after the procedure? / Please ask the experts to explain the procedure of a D&C in detail.Doctor's answer:
According to the medical history, functional endocrine disorders of uterine bleeding are considered, caused by endocrine disorders. It is recommended to undergo a six-item sex hormone test to understand the endocrine status, and to perform a diagnostic curettage similar to an induced abortion procedure. The scraped tissue should be sent for pathological examination to determine the nature of endometrial inflammation. Postoperatively, you can take Marvelon to regulate your menstrual cycle, while also coordinating with traditional Chinese medicine for regulation. Abstinence from sexual activity for one month is recommended. Gynecological diseases are not easy to recover from. Friends with gynecological diseases should maintain a positive attitude and face them with a proactive mindset. Only in this way can they boost their confidence in combating gynecological diseases and believe that they can definitely recover.
