1110747 tn?1295844043 im sorry for your loss.. same here i just lost losr my son when i was 14weeks pregnant just recently. I can not say i experience the same problem because mine was so recent that me and my DH havent had sex yet. My doctor told me that i should wait atlest 2-4 weeks before i have sex so that my body can fully recover from the D&C or at least wait until the bleeding stops that means that my uterus have healed. My question is how soon did you had sex with your husband?
Avatar f tn I'm so sorry for your loss. I am 40 and had my 2nd m/c this past March. I had a D&C and after my 10-day check-up my OB said sex was fine. I had a "natural" m/c 5 years ago, but I don't recall how long my OB said to wait or if he even said at all. We chose to use condoms for the first cycle b/c we felt like it was better to wait at least 1 cycle before TTC again (among other reasons). We are now pg again and hoping and praying everything goes well this time.
Avatar n tn i had a miscarriage at10 weeks pretty much knew it was refered to as a blighted ovum at 8 weeks so the next 2 weeks i had hcg levels and when they wernt doubling but my doc. was persistant to go on one finally showed a drop i had another u/s that next day confirmed again. i scheduled a d&c the following week i ts been 1 month in 2 days i havent gotn my period yet i have gotten sick because of the d&c and needed antiobiotics and a recent cold. i dont know what my levels are of now.
629520 tn?1252796105 D&Cs are good for "cleaning" yourself out. I know a woman who had one because of her periods. I suppose this might help. I'm sure your doctor wouldn't suggest it if it were harmful or not necessary.
Avatar f tn Ok so I just had a d&c last week. And after a couple days to a week I stopped bleeding. Once it stopped I started having sex. I just wanted to know if being pregnant is likely bcuz all of it was unprotected, or is it still to early to get prego?
893889 tn?1294276977 I remember having sex the first time after my m/c. I had a d&c so we had to wait 2 weeks, which we did, but I remember it being uncomfortable during and after also. I think you should be okay but if the pain lasts or gets worse it wouldn't hurt to call your Dr.
Avatar m tn I suffer from those symptoms as well. I was on bc for at least 15 yrs & then quit it about 4 yrs ago to ttc and that's when I started to realize I had some issues b/c the pain really showed up then & just got worse the longer I was off of the bc. I finally had exploratory surgery almost a year ago to find out what was wrong and try to treat the issue to help with the pain. Ended up having stage 3 endo, ovarian cysts (pcos), as well as uterine fibroids/cysts.
Avatar f tn I had a d&c 3/16 and had sex three days after and every other day since then. My doctor told me I can begin having sex when ever I'm emotionally ready. And making love with my husband helped me actually feel better. Its been six weeks since my miscarriage and no period. Were hoping for a baby but putting it in gods hands. Good luck and sending you baby dust!
1785186 tn?1321987926 After a D&C it's best to wait at least 1-3 months before trying to get pregnant again. This is just to allow the uterus to heal as well as the lining to rebuild itself. Make sure you wait to have sex for at least 2 weeks after you had this done to avoid infection as well.
Avatar f tn My doctor said to wait 2 cycles, I started having sex again when I could after my d&c and ended up with a conception date the day before my 21st birthday, I was waiting for another period and it never came so Jan 5th rolled around and I took a test, sure enough, it was positive. I believe in fate, if its meant to happen, it will, if not, well, it won't.
Avatar f tn I had one before.. They put you to sleep and scrape your uterus.. It's not painful but the emotional hurt is.. I woke up saying I didn't want any kids after that.. I had a missed miscarriage, meaning my body never rejected the baby.. Just make sure someone who can comfort you goes with you.. I'm sorry for your lose..
Avatar f tn I never had any serious cramping after a D&C either (I have had 2 as well). If it continues, I would most definately contact your Dr. As for sex afterward, yes I was told 3 days, or when the bleeding stopped. But as queenspade said so well, it really depends on what you are comfortable with. She said it all, so I just wanted to add my support, and to please be good to yourself. I know this is such a hard time...allow yourself to grieve. ((hugs)) to you as well.
Avatar f tn I had some painful cramping for a day or two after my 2nd D&C as well. I think it just happens sometimes. It shouldn't be "doubled over" kind of cramping, just like a bad AF. I used tylenol with codeine and a hot water bottle and it was much better the next day. Put on a comfy robe, put your feet up and try to relax as much as possible. If it gets too bad call your Dr. It is pretty rare to have complications with a D&C, but listen to your instincts.
Avatar n tn after how much time we can have sex, and get pregnant. d&c was carried out after 5 weeks of pregnancy. wat r precautions during sex????
456039 tn?1302660148 I had a D & C on 14th Dec 07, i bled slightly after then it stopped, i abstained from sex for 3 weeks then we had a wild one een i enjoyed every bit. Your body is still healing from this, and that's why the cramping and bleeding, your bones must be still weak, you need some time to regain.
Avatar f tn Well after 2 miscarriages and a d and c I finally got my period today. It feels like a start to being normal again.. But it was a painful period. Cramping like crazy!!! Happy to see it hope they get less painful though. This is a long road!!! Despite everything I still have that dang baby bug. Funny thing is I didn't have it when I had my first m/c the pregnancy was a suprise. Now I imagine another person(little baby person) at the table, like a phantom limb I guess...
Avatar n tn Yes it is I had a m/c last yr n had a d&c n now I'm 10 wks preg
Avatar n tn A D&C procedure is actually the easiest and least painful part of a miscarriage. I just had one on 3/18/09. I was at the hospital for outpatient surgery at 10am, and was released by 3pm. They put me in a twilight sleep and the procedure took about 25 minutes. Which the OB told my husband and mother was much needed, as I had not passed much of anything yet. They gave me a script for percocet and sent me home.
Avatar f tn After being told that i was pregnant, then that i had miscarried, then i was told that i was still pregnant, then there was a sac but no baby. I had a D&C done on March 6th. I was told i can begin to try ttc but i am so nervous and scared. should i try immediately or wait a little longer? Any suggestions help and are appreciated.
Avatar f tn I would definately talk to your doctor about this. Did you have a DNC? I know that sometimes painful sex can be psychological. Maybe you are still dealing with your loss at a subconscious level and your body just isn't ready yet. Also, your hormones could be out of whack making it more painful, less lubrication. There can be so many different things going on that can cause problems.
459969 tn?1398170254 Sorry for your loss. It's been 1.5 weeks since my miscarriage/ D&C and I was the same way. I craved sex, emotionally/mentally, afterwards. I was told to wait two weeks or untill the bleeding stopped before having sex because of the D&C. Now that I can/ have had sex again I have mixed feelings about it, and about possibly getting pregnant again. I want a baby so badly, but am terrified at the same time. Hope everything works out for you!
