Dilation and Curettage (D&C)
Dilation and Curettage (D&C) is a common gynecological procedure used for both diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. At BPK9 International Hospital, we are committed to providing this treatment with the highest standards of safety, privacy, and compassionate care.
What is D&C?
Dilation and Curettage is a minimally invasive procedure in which the cervix is gently dilated (opened), and specialized instruments are used to remove tissue from the lining of the uterus. This procedure is typically performed by experienced gynecologists under carefully monitored conditions.
When is D&C recommended?
A D&C may be advised for several medical reasons, including:
- Evaluation of abnormal uterine bleeding
- Removal of tissue following miscarriage
- Diagnosis of uterine conditions such as polyps or abnormalities
- Treatment for retained tissue after pregnancy
Our specialists will always ensure a thorough consultation before recommending this procedure, prioritizing your comfort and understanding at every step.
What to expect during the procedure
The procedure is usually performed under local or general anesthesia, depending on your individual needs. It typically takes a short time, and most patients can return home the same day. Our medical team closely monitors each patient to ensure safety and a smooth recovery.
Recovery and aftercare
Recovery from D&C is generally quick. Some mild cramping or light bleeding may occur for a few days. Our team provides clear aftercare instructions and remains available to support you throughout your recovery journey.
