Dilation and curettage (D&C) is a surgical procedure used to remove tissue from the lining of the uterus. It involves two main steps: dilation, where the cervix is gently widened using instruments or medication, and curettage, where a curette (a specialized instrument) is used to scrape the uterine lining. This procedure can be performed for various reasons, including diagnosing and treating abnormal uterine bleeding, removing remnants of a miscarriage, or performing a biopsy for further examination of abnormal cells. It is also used to manage certain conditions such as endometrial hyperplasia or polyps. The procedure is typically performed under general or local anesthesia, and it is usually done on an outpatient basis. While D&C is generally safe, it is associated with potential complications. Common risks include infection, bleeding, and perforation of the uterus, which could require additional treatment or surgery. Some women may experience cramping or spotting after the procedure, and there is a small risk of damage to the cervix or uterus. In rare cases, scar tissue may form inside the uterus, leading to a condition known as Asherman's syndrome, which can affect future menstrual cycles or fertility. Despite these risks, D&C remains a valuable and effective procedure for diagnosing and treating various uterine conditions, offering relief from symptoms and important information for further management of reproductive health issues.
