Hi vi, I also had a miscarriage a few
years ago and didn't need to have a dnc
done as I was only about a month or so
along. I think it depends on how far
along you are whether a dnc is necessary
or not. Did you go to a dr?

Other Problems At the Cause... Posted: 04-07-05 13:57pm
I'm sorry to hear about your struggle.
You might want to do some research and ask
your doctor about endometriosis which can
make getting pregnant a challenge. You
may have some endometrial tissue blocking
fallopian tubes or complicating your
uterus or ovaries. Ovarian cysts may also
be plausible as a pregnancy challenge.
I've had endometriosis and surgery to
clean it out. They told me I may have
trouble getting pregnant, though i've
never really tried.
I hope this helps, be patient with
yourself on this road to discovering the
answers.
Not all women who miscarry need a d&c.
The ob/gyn can determine if it is
necessary after a pelvic exam. If you
did not have a d&c, then you passed a
complete spontaneous abortion. D&c's
are only needed if you have an incomplete
spontaneous abortion. I hate the word
abortion, but that is the medical term.
I also agree with the endometriosis. I
would ask my ob/gyn to do a diagnostic
laparoscopy with a tubal patentcy. This
would rule out any mechanical problems
with conception on your part.
