 Posted: 02/23/06 - 20:03 Post subject: prolonged menstrual periods after miscarriage |
  |
|
| i've been experiencing periods that last 15 days at a time, usually just spotting... but, they're annoying! i miscarried about 7 months ago, naturally... now, i'm having this odd spotting that seems to be letting up a bit, it used to be heavy for the full 15 days or so. i went to my endocrinologist, she checked all my hormone levels, and everything is perfect. what could this be? |

Have you had D&C after you miscarriage to clean the uterus from the tissue that was left inside?
If you haven’t, it is possible that these “left overs” are causing heavier bleeding. Some women are given tablets instead of performing D&C to make the uterus contract and expel the tissue on its own. If it was an early miscarriage, then the tissue is left to be expelled on its own.
However, it’s been 7 months, and I reckon you should have expelled it by now but not necessarily.
If you had D&C done, it is possible that a small hole was made in the uterus, which can lead to bleedings and even infections.
You should certainly go and ask for an ultrasound, which should be able to tell if any of the tissue is still left and if there were any complications.
You shouldn’t be bleeding that much, so I would ask for answers.
If everything’s in order with your womb, you should ask to have a physical exam, pap smear or saline sonogram to check for possible abnormalities like uterine fibroids or polyps. |
