Patient's question:
Patient Age: Currently 45 days pregnant, with a gestational sac measuring 0.70.4 cm in size at the right cornual region. There has been a discharge of brownish-colored fluid in the past two days. At 49 days, an abdominal ultrasound showed the gestational sac to be too small. Should we consider the possibility of embryonic demise?Doctor's answer:
Analysis of the condition: Dilation and curettage (D&C), also known as a, is the most commonly used method for early induced abortion. Advice: If there is fetal demise, a D&C is necessary to prevent residual tissue from affecting menstruation and future pregnancy. D&C procedures are generally performed under anesthesia, and conventional methods are rarely used. Although D&C does not require surgery, it is still a gynecological procedure that must be conducted under strict sterilization. It is recommended to undergo the procedure at a reputable hospital.
