How are fetal membrane remnants expelled

Patient's question:

How are the remnants of the placenta expelled? When I consulted the attending doctor, she said that in the lower segment of the uterine cavity, they can be expelled. After taking Yixue'an Granules, I was scheduled for a follow-up check-up in 2 weeks. So I am waiting. Is there a good way to expel them without undergoing a D&C? Of course, I have had a D&C once before, and I don't want to endure the pain again.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, in your case, as long as you continue to take medication as prescribed by the doctor to expel the remnants, it is fine. There is no need for a D&C for the time being. I suggest you visit the hospital for a follow-up check-up promptly after 2 weeks. If there are still remnants afterward, it is generally necessary to undergo a D&C in a timely manner. It is important for the patient to take this seriously, pay attention to personal hygiene, and maintain a light diet. I hope this helps!
