First Period After D/C

Sorry about your miscarriage. I've been there and it sucks!

I had a D and C several years ago for chronic heavy periods. I had 2 periods a month with very heavy bleeding several times a year. When they do the procedure, they are scraping your uterus. Mine was done to clean everything out. Yours would have been done for the same thing. I think it will take time to go back to normal. If you are having other normal symptoms of periods, it probably is one.

When you have a D&C done, they are scrapping the lining of your uterus to "clean you out." When you have your period, your body is basically doing the same thing only the natural way. So the period after a D&C, there really isn't much for your uterus to shed which means you will not have as many symptoms as usual. It might take a couple of months for things to get back to normal as your body builds up the lining again.

my first period was very strange after both of my d/c and it was actually the same way after my miscarriage that I had naturally (no d/c, so for the TMI) and then after a month or 2 they were fine. I always waited 2 full periods before trying again (and just so you're not discouraged, we found out I have a progrestrone problem and hopefully artifical will fix it all next time around). Good luck and I'm sorry for what you went through.

periods take a few months to get back on track after d&c.i had one last year for m/c-it took 2 months and then pg again. successfully. GL.
