A curette is done in the following circumstances: You have heavy or persistent bleeding and/or pain. The medical staff advise that this is a better option for you; this may be because of the amount of tissue present, especially with a missed miscarriage.
How do you know if you need a D&C?
Your doctor might recommend a type of D&C called endometrial sampling to diagnose a condition if:
- You have abnormal uterine bleeding.
- You experience bleeding after menopause.
- Your doctor discovers abnormal endometrial cells during a routine test for cervical cancer.
What happens if you don't get a D&C?
If the tissue isn't removed, the incomplete miscarriage can cause very heavy bleeding, prolonged bleeding, or an infection.
