Unprotected Sex the night before D&C?

Jess S

So without thinking about it, since I knew it would be a while before we could make love again me and my husband had unprotected sex the night before my D&C. Do I have to worry about getting pregnant? Or was everything, even the sperm, removed with the suction D&C?

Answer
You need not worry. Your uterus will be free of sperms.

Just had a Miscarriage &nd D&C?

vanessa

I went to the hospital On the 5th of October 2013 because I was passing blood clots that were maybe 2 inches long with dark red blood. I was told I have a UTI (Urinary Tract Infection) &nd during the ultrasound my baby wasn't able to found. I was 13 weeks &nd 4 days by the time. I was ask if I wanted to check again, to come back in the morning &nd in the paperwork he put Threaten Abortion. I was given medication for the UTI &nd I came the very next day. Same news, but with a helpful doctor this time. He told me I lost my baby &nd put on the paperwork it was a Fetus Demis. I was so heart broken &nd it felt like my whole world crumble. He thought that the baby maybe came out without me noticing since again, it was nowhere in the ultrasound. So I stick to that assumption. The very next day at 11 at the night, my poor baby came out. I only had one ultrasound done (when I first found out I was 2 months &nd 3 days pregnant) I was so broken, but then happy to finally see how big it has gotten. It was already grown; little feet with toes, fingers, mouth, long arms &nd legs.. We actually got to find out the sex of the baby also when I was just holding it; a beautiful baby baby. He resembled so much of his father.. <3 I didn't know what to do with the baby so I took it with me as I went to the hospital. Without no warning they took my baby &nd they checked me. I thought "maybe if they check the cause of death, they will give my son back" Once the lady said it looked like everything was okay &nd nothing seems to be coming out they told me I can NO LONGER get my son back due to the fact he wasn't 20 weeks or up. Me &nd the father argued, cried &nd yelled for a long while at them because I wasn't aware of this at all. We finally got some help &nd the nexts day we were told we can do either a burial or cremation for my son. We thanked them &nd we went to get our son cremated. 5 days later I started cramping horribly, heavy bleeding &nd getting blood clots that are the size of my whole palm. I was getting so much of them &nd I was told I was getting a D&C (which was yesterday; October 10th, 2013). once that was done, I was happy that my bleeding stopped, the cramps stopped &nd the scary, huge blood clots were done. I wasn't informed from my OB since he just did the surgery &nd left on how long do I have to wait to have sex &nd when to try again. Since this was my first pregnancy, I was mind blown about being a mother so young (19 years old) but I got so use to the fact I'm carrying a mini me inside of me <3 We both decided to try again, but we googled everything about this situation &nd everyone's questions are different. &nd I want to say to all the mothers who have lost there child while carrying them or mothers that have had stillborn, I'm deeply deeply sorry </3 :''''(
JustAGrandma, Many told me to wait 2 weeks for intercourse

Answer
You need to wait six weeks before engaging in intercourse, and it would be wise to wait a minimum of six months before trying again. From the sound of it you lost quite a bit of blood, and if they don't have any idea of why you miscarried you want to have some solid healing time.

Miscarriages are very common, about one third of all pregnancies end in a miscarriage. There is a very deep sense of loss with it, but socially we don't have funerals for fetus under the time it could exist on its own, generally at five months. That's why you didn't get the body back, its not the usual thing to do.
Frankly, while it wouldn't have changed the outcome, they did a poor job of explaining it to you.
I'm well past that now, but I the past I had several miscarriages, and three live births, one of which died shortly after his birth. Women are so much stronger than we are given credit for.
This has been a very sad and confusing time for you, it never is completely gone, but you learn to live with it. Hopefully in the years to come there will be more children for you, that does make it a little easier.
Good luck to you in the future.

Kassie

i was 12 weeks when I found out I lostmy baby at 8 weeks due to no heartbeat. I had the d&c done November 1st. my question is what the possibilities for me to get pregnant really soon my doctor said after my first cycle I can try again. but didn't no how long afterwards it could take to convice again. im hoping really soon.

Answer
Same thing happened to me. I was 12 weeks in July but there was no heartbeat and mine had stopped developing at 6 weeks so had to have d&c. I had 1 cycle (August 27) and got pregnant now at 14 weeks. Also, chances of carrying healthy baby to delivery after miscarriage (whether you actually miscarried or had a MISSED miscarriage) is 90%

Fertility after a D&C, how likely will I be able to conceive after the procedure?

jennifer

Hello All, I am a 23 year old female and recently my GYN found multiple endometrial polyps. In three days time I will be undergoing a D&C to remove the polyps. After reading many other answers and various peer reviewed articles, I am still unsure on where fertility stands after the procedure. Many articles say that fertility chances are likely to rise and others say that due to scarring of the tissue it would be impossible. I have never been pregnant or had any miscarriages despite me and my boyfriend of 3 years having unprotected sex (not actively ttc or trying not to). On some unconscious level I always knew there was a problem as I was never able to conceive, and sure enough hopefully the only issue to be found are the polyps. Me and my boyfriend who is 28 and dying to become a father as much as me a mother would be grateful for any advice, feedback, and personal experience to help guide our thoughts. Anything you can offer would help, we need to be realistic in our situation, so all answers are welcome. Thank you! and good luck to anyone in the same shoes.

Answer
" There is evidence to show that removing uterine polyps does boost fertility in previously infertile women. For example, one study found that 63% of women suffering from uterine polyps got pregnant via intrauterine insemination (IUI) after they had their polyps removed. This figure compares to only 28% of women with uterine polyps who got pregnant from IUI alone."

Have a look at http://www.fertilityfactor.com/uterine-polyps.html for more medical info.. very best of luck.

Just had my 2nd miscarraige this year, should we try again? PLEASE READ AND HELP ME!!!!!!!?

get pregnant after d&c image

Brittany

I know this is finally the decision of me and my husband but I need some outside opinions. I found out I was pregnant Oct 14th and started bleeding the 28th of Oct. I was 6 weeks along. I went into the doc on the 29th and was still bleeding, my doc did an ultrasound and saw that the baby and pregnancy sack were still there but the pregnancy sack was not healthy and my uterus was sooo full of blood and golf ball sized blood clots that he told me that if he didn't do a D&C and I went home I would hemorrhage (bleed) to death. SO I had to do it.
So now my question is should I start trying again in the next few months? What could have caused this?
Three things happened the day before I started to bleed (the 27th)
1. I woke up with horrible uncomfortableness in my tummy and back (I get it every once in a while) and my stomach was swollen, it felt like I had to go poop very bad but couldn't just like every other time this happened, and it felt like my bowel were swollen. (my fam doc said a few months back he thought that I may have Irritable bowel syndrome, but at the time we were handling something else and never found out.
2. I fell backwards onto my coffee table but only landed on my butt
3. I had a minor asthma attack.
Could any of these start that bleeding and cause this??
PLEASE HELP ME I KNOW IT WAS LONG BUT I NEED HELP!!
my other miscarriage was at 8 weeks along in FEB so we gave our selves a long time to heal before getting pregnant again.

Answer
They say a miscarriage happens from an abnormality with the fetus. Its not your fault. I am sorry for your loss and will pray for you. I think maybe you should get some blood test done and rule out any type of disorders or any genetic situation btwn you and your husband maybe there is something with the compatibility btwn y'all to. Or if just could of been an abnormal sperm. Definitely talk to a counselor and look into a specialist for some testing to be done and look into your bowel syndrome. Good luck and it will work out. Our lord will bless you. :)

Weird Vaginal discharge? Advice please!?

Domi

So about 1-2 years ago I became pregnant, I had a miscarriage and since the baby didn't come out naturally i had to have a D&C.. Ever since I was pregnant I had this problem with excessive discharge it didn't happen right about until January(the discharge) of this year.. I had my D&C several months before that. Since January to this day every month i discharge so much, even during intercourse.. I know it's not right because I've never had this experience until after my pregnancy. I've noticed every time I ovulate that's when it starts bad now i know us ladies discharge around that time but I don't think its normal for how much i discharge, i don't discharge at all until the day i ovulate, and the discharge lasts until a couple days before my period. It's the same repeat every month. It's frustrating because my husband doesn't want to touch me for those two weeks of ridiculous discharge. because every time we have intercourse during the time frame of my discharge extensiveness it gets all over him.. white milky discharge no smell no itch nothing .. I went to the gyno i had no infection but she said my pH is off balance so i started so much remedies with baking soda, salt baths etc etc.. they didn't help that much. Then I found two pills i take everyday called accidophulous and these BV capsules i bought at walmart. They helped quiet a little bit maybe knocked some days of discharge off. So when it started to help I stopped taking them and it started all over again.. I don't want to be on pills for ever. I just want this over with ladies or whoever please help.. remedies/ medicine, advice anything.. I just want to feel normal again and not suffer, and be back to normal discharge!!

Answer
You could possibly have an infection in your vagina. It would be best to get it checked by your doctor and go on antibiotics if you end up having an infection after all. By the way keep in mind antibiotics decrease effectiveness of any birth control until you get off of the antibiotics so be cautious.
