You may be thinking: <em>Will it hurt? Will it affect future fertility? Do I really need surgery?<\/em> In India, where families are often closely involved and advice can come from every direction, clarity matters.<\/p> <p>A good care team keeps it simple: <strong>Dilation and curettage<\/strong> is a short procedure to open the cervix and remove tissue from the uterus, most often by suction. It can help control bleeding, lower infection risk, and sometimes provide a lab diagnosis. In most cases, recovery is steady and predictable.<\/p> <h2 id=\"dilationandcurettagewhatitmeansinplainlanguage\">Dilation and curettage: what it means, in plain language<\/h2> <h3 id=\"dilationandcurettagetwostepsonepurpose\">&#8220;Dilation&#8221; and &#8220;curettage&#8221;: two steps, one purpose<\/h3> <ul> <li><strong>Dilation<\/strong>: gently widening the cervix (the lower, narrow part of the uterus).<\/li> <li><strong>Curettage<\/strong>: removing tissue from inside the uterus.<\/li> <\/ul> <p>Today, <strong>Dilation and curettage<\/strong> is usually performed with <strong>suction aspiration<\/strong> using a thin cannula (a soft tube). Sharp curettage with a spoon-shaped instrument is less common and generally reserved for selected situations.<\/p> <h3 id=\"whatdilationandcurettageisusedfor\">What Dilation and curettage is used for<\/h3> <p>A <strong>Dilation and curettage<\/strong> may be offered to:<\/p> <ul> <li><strong>Remove retained tissue<\/strong> after miscarriage, abortion, or delivery<\/li> <li><strong>Control heavy bleeding<\/strong> linked to retained tissue<\/li> <li>Reduce infection risk when tissue remains inside the uterus<\/li> <li><strong>Collect an endometrial sample<\/strong> (uterine lining) for <strong>histopathology<\/strong> when doctors need more information<\/li> <\/ul> <p>If tissue is sent to the lab, the pathology report can confirm what was removed (pregnancy tissue, benign endometrium, a <strong>polyp<\/strong>) or point to changes needing follow-up.<\/p> <h3 id=\"differentnamesyoumighthear\">Different names you might hear<\/h3> <p>Depending on the hospital or doctor, <strong>Dilation and curettage<\/strong> may be called:<\/p> <ul> <li>D&amp;C<\/li> <li>suction curettage<\/li> <li>vacuum aspiration<\/li> <li>uterine evacuation<\/li> <\/ul> <h2 id=\"whendilationandcurettagecanbehelpful\">When Dilation and curettage can be helpful<\/h2> <h3 id=\"aftermiscarriagewhentheuterushasnotemptiedfully\">After miscarriage: when the uterus has not emptied fully<\/h3> <p>After a miscarriage, tissue may pass naturally within hours or days. But sometimes the uterus retains tissue, and bleeding continues or restarts, pain persists, or fever raises concern.<\/p> <p>A <strong>Dilation and curettage<\/strong> is commonly considered when there is:<\/p> <ul> <li><strong>Incomplete miscarriage<\/strong> (some tissue remains on ultrasound)<\/li> <li><strong>Missed miscarriage<\/strong> (pregnancy stopped developing, but tissue has not passed)<\/li> <li>symptoms such as:<\/li> <li>ongoing or returning bleeding<\/li> <li>pelvic pain or cramping that does not settle<\/li> <li><strong>hCG<\/strong> levels dropping too slowly<\/li> <\/ul> <p>You may hear &#8220;retained trophoblastic tissue&#8221; (tissue linked to the early placenta). If it stays attached, it can keep bleeding going and delay the fall in hCG.<\/p> <h3 id=\"heavybleedingseverepainorfeverwhenwaitingisnotwise\">Heavy bleeding, severe pain, or fever: when waiting is not wise<\/h3> <p>A faster approach is often advised when:<\/p> <ul> <li>bleeding is heavy (pads saturate quickly, large clots, weakness)<\/li> <li>pain is intense or worsening<\/li> <li>fever appears (\u2265 <strong>38\u00b0C\/100.4\u00b0F<\/strong>), chills, foul-smelling discharge, or feeling very unwell<\/li> <\/ul> <p>Sometimes waiting or medicines are possible. But when infection or heavy bleeding is suspected, the focus shifts to preventing complications like <strong>anaemia<\/strong> or <strong>endometritis<\/strong>.<\/p> <h3 id=\"retainedproductsofconceptionrpoc\">Retained products of conception (RPOC)<\/h3> <p>Retained tissue can happen after miscarriage, after abortion, and occasionally after childbirth. When it remains, cramps and bleeding can continue, and infection risk increases.<\/p> <p>In such cases, <strong>Dilation and curettage<\/strong> with suction is commonly used, sometimes with ultrasound guidance or hysteroscopy if tissue is focal or difficult to clear.<\/p> <h3 id=\"afterchildbirthpostpartumbleedingorretainedplacenta\">After childbirth: postpartum bleeding or retained placenta<\/h3> <p>Postpartum uterus is larger and more vascular, so bleeding control is a priority. A <strong>Dilation and curettage<\/strong> may be planned in a setting where the team can act quickly if bleeding increases.<\/p> <p>If you are breastfeeding, inform the anaesthesia team, medicines can usually be chosen to suit lactation.<\/p> <h3 id=\"abnormaluterinebleedingaubandliningassessment\">Abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB) and lining assessment<\/h3> <p>When bleeding is heavy, irregular, or persistent, doctors may recommend <strong>Dilation and curettage<\/strong> to obtain a larger sample than an office biopsy, particularly when earlier sampling was insufficient.<\/p> <h3 id=\"polypssmallfibroidssuspectedendometrialhyperplasia\">Polyps, small fibroids, suspected endometrial hyperplasia<\/h3> <p>A <strong>Dilation and curettage<\/strong> can help diagnose <strong>endometrial hyperplasia<\/strong> and can sometimes remove tissue related to polyps. If the problem is focal (one specific area), <strong>hysteroscopy<\/strong> often improves accuracy because the doctor can see and target the lesion.<\/p> <h3 id=\"molarpregnancycare\">Molar pregnancy care<\/h3> <p>If a molar pregnancy is suspected, <strong>Dilation and curettage<\/strong> is typically used to evacuate abnormal placental tissue. Follow-up relies on serial <strong>hCG<\/strong> monitoring.<\/p> <h2 id=\"alternativestodilationandcurettageespeciallyaftermiscarriage\">Alternatives to Dilation and curettage (especially after miscarriage)<\/h2> <h3 id=\"expectantmanagementwatchfulwaiting\">Expectant management (watchful waiting)<\/h3> <p>Waiting may be considered, usually in early pregnancy, if:<\/p> <ul> <li>you feel well overall<\/li> <li>there is no fever<\/li> <li>bleeding is moderate and stable<\/li> <\/ul> <p>The downside is timing uncertainty, and sometimes the uterus still does not empty fully.<\/p> <h3 id=\"medicationmanagementmisoprostol\">Medication management (misoprostol)<\/h3> <p>Misoprostol helps the uterus contract. It can work well, but parents should be prepared for:<\/p> <ul> <li>strong cramps<\/li> <li>heavier bleeding during expulsion<\/li> <li>a chance of incomplete evacuation that still needs suction aspiration<\/li> <\/ul> <h3 id=\"suctionaspirationvsclassiccurettage\">Suction aspiration vs &#8220;classic&#8221; curettage<\/h3> <p>If a procedure is needed, suction aspiration is usually preferred as it is generally gentler on the uterine lining. A small additional curettage step may be used if tissue is adherent.<\/p> <h3 id=\"howdecisionsareusuallymade\">How decisions are usually made<\/h3> <p>Doctors weigh:<\/p> <ul> <li>bleeding, pain, fever<\/li> <li>prior uterine surgery (caesarean, myomectomy) or prior D&amp;C<\/li> <li>follow-up access<\/li> <li>your preference: quick closure versus avoiding the operating theatre when safely possible<\/li> <\/ul> <h2 id=\"typesofdilationandcurettageandtechniquechoices\">Types of Dilation and curettage and technique choices<\/h2> <h3 id=\"diagnosticvstherapeutic\">Diagnostic vs therapeutic<\/h3> <ul> <li><strong>Diagnostic Dilation and curettage<\/strong>: primarily for sampling the endometrium when biopsy is inadequate.<\/li> <li><strong>Therapeutic Dilation and curettage<\/strong>: for removing retained tissue or treating bleeding.<\/li> <\/ul> <h3 id=\"suctionmethodsandmanualvacuumaspirationmva\">Suction methods and manual vacuum aspiration (MVA)<\/h3> <p>Most modern procedures use suction. <strong>MVA<\/strong> uses a hand-held suction device and may be suitable in a clinic for selected cases.<\/p> <h3 id=\"withhysteroscopyvswithoutdirectvisualisation\">With hysteroscopy vs without direct visualisation<\/h3> <p>A &#8220;blind&#8221; D&amp;C removes tissue without seeing inside the uterus.
