Is a D&C procedure used for threatened miscarriage?

Patient's question:

On October 15, 2016, I had my last menstrual period. On November 18, I confirmed I was pregnant. By November 27, in the afternoon, I started spotting and immediately went to the hospital. When I arrived, I lost a lot of blood. After the ultrasound, the doctor said it could be a threatened miscarriage. Today, the doctor said it was a miscarriage, and the chance of an ectopic pregnancy was very low. During the ultrasound, the doctor didn't see anything outside the uterus. I had two ultrasounds—one on the 27th when I went to the hospital, and another on the 28th. Today, the doctor asked me to be admitted to the hospital immediately for observation and to have a D&C procedure! In need of help: Do I need to be admitted to the hospital immediately for close observation? To have a D&C procedure?

Doctor's answer:

It can be saved. If there is irregular vaginal bleeding after getting pregnant, it is considered as threatened miscarriage. Timely treatment can be implemented to save the pregnancy. You can take progesterone capsules to save the pregnancy, or go to the hospital for progesterone injections to treat it well. During the first three months of pregnancy, it is strictly forbidden to have sexual intercourse. Do not overwork or exert yourself. The above is advice for the question "Please check the ultrasound report for threatened miscarriage in early pregnancy." I hope it helps you. Wish you health!
