Bleeding After D&c Posted: 09-03-05 16:57pm
I had a miscarriage about 2.5 months ago..
They gave me a d&c.
2 weeks later I went to the doctors and
the doctor said that I was ok... She
didn't even do an exam... There was light
bleeding and then the bleeding stopped the
following day... For 3 weeks I had no
bleeding... ( oh yes I was taking bc
pills the few weeks after the d&c) it
was time for my period.. And it was
almost a week late..
Now my period is here and it goes in and
out... Light and heavy.... And it has
been about 3.5 weeks and I need to know if
anyone has had anything similar happen to
them... I feel like the bleeding will
never stop... Oh yeah.. There is also
lots of hours of cramping.... And I feel
that my miscarriage has made my health
drop because I can't seem to stay un
sick.. I have been having colds every
other week.. And I am having to miss work
too much.... If anyone can give me advice
for any of these it will be great...
Thank you !!

It sounds to me like you might have an
infection--although I know that is why we
get d&c to prevent infection.
Please either go to emergency or go to new
dr--since doesnt sound like yours is
listening. Do it as soon as possible,
tell them what you told us. Especially
how your body seems drained and weak.
And of course the 3.5 weeks bleeding off
and on not normal unless you were like 8
months pregnant when you miscarried

D & C Posted: 10-04-05 18:26pm
I had two d & c's done last year in
august & then again in december. I
had two really awful miscarriages last
year, and I went back to see my doctor
after two weeks and he examed me
internally to make sure that all was well.
With the first d & c I bled for about
14 days and then my period came back 6
weeks later. With the second one I bled
for about 11 days and then I had my period
6 weeks later as well. I only had
cramping the evenings of the d & c's
and maybe two days after that, but then I
was okay and the beeding wasn't even all
that heavy really. I think that you shud
have been examined internally just to make
sure that all is going well. I hope that
things work out gud for you though.
