Patient ED @ 617-379-1582 INFO
On the day of your operation, you will be asked to put on a surgical gown.
You may receive a sedative by mouth and
an intravenous line may be put in.
You will then be transferred to the operating table.
To perform a D and C, your doctor needs unobstructed access to your uterus, so your feet will be raised, separated and placed in canvas slings – holding your legs in a position much like that position used during a routine gynecological exam.
To begin, the genital area is swabbed with an antiseptic solution …
… and sterile towels are draped around until only the vulva is exposed.
Then the surgeon will use a gloved hand to conduct a vaginal examination and will check the size and location of the uterus by pressing on your lower abdomen.
A metal or plastic vaginal speculum is used to gently expand the vagina and allow access to the cervix. Patient Education
Once the cervix is visible, a forcep is used to grasp the front lip of the cervix – causing the uterus to open a little.
Using a blunt-tipped probe, the surgeon carefully measures the length of the uterus and takes a small sample of tissue from the cervical canal.
Next, the surgeon will dilate, or open the cervix, using a series of progressively larger metal rods called dilators.
When the cervix has expanded sufficiently, the doctor will use a spoon-shaped instrument called a curette to gently scrape out the lining of the uterus. In some cases, surge
When the entire lining of the uterus has been removed, the instruments are withdrawn.
The tissue removed will then be sent to a laboratory for analysis.

    D&C is not just for abortions or miscarriages. I never had an abortion or miscarried a child. I just had a cone biopsy and a D&C. It is good for those women over 30 to have it done especially if you never had a kid before. Over the years there’s alot of build-up that needs flushing. They aren’t so bad. I’m back on my feet its only been 5 days :)

    D & C is done to …
    D & C is done to peel out the endometrium (the inner most lining of uterus) in certain case of abortion or miscarriage. It is also done when there is abnormal bleeding from uterus. As with PCO, D & C does not clean the ovary. You can still conceive even if you have PCO. If you have PCOS, that is ovarian cysts with imbalance in hormones, there are means with which you can still conceive with medical assistance. Consult a gynaecologist for more assistance

    I have had to have D&Cs because I have had c-sections and then late term miscarriages so the placenta gets stuck to the scar tissue. Hasn’t happenned since 2004 though. Got my tubies tied. :)

    Stop arguing! A D&C …
    Stop arguing! A D&C can be used for diagnostic (cancer, irregular bleeds, fibroids) and for therapeutic reasons (early miscarriage) but IS NOT used as a method for abortion, they use either suction curettage or D&E (dilation and evacuation)— hope this clears things up!
