Q: Spotting after D & C

I was 12weeks along when I found out I misscarried I had no sign of misscarrying it was by an ultrasound for IPS or EPS? testing that we had found out. I have had a D and C about 3 weeks ago. I bled for 8 days after with bleeding varying from heavy to light, and passed multiple clots the size of peas. It then stopped completely. Today I awoke to find that I have some light red bleeding. It's not heavy and I have had no symptoms of any form. I'm just concerned that they're might be a problem with my HCG level or something wrong with me. Could you please get back to me as soon as possible. I'd like to know if I should be going to the hospital.

Since it's light and has only been going on for one day, I would wait before going to the hospital/ doctor. But if the bleeding continues or becomes heavier, I think you should see a doctor.

usually the hospital tells you to follow up with your doctor.
i had a d&c and hysteroscopy = camera in uterus to see what's wrong. i have a bleeding problem. the doctor's assume its from hormonal imbalance. it used to be heavy with larges clots, or spotting. after surgery and the depo shot, i m still spotting. i am frustrated im considering hysterectomy. i think i m finish with kids (only have 1 13yr. old)
i read a post where a person told them the doctor said your body could still think it's pregnant. are you on birth control or would consider taking it to regulate your menses.
