Curettage of the uterus


Dilation and Curettage (D&C) – a surgical procedure used to clear the uterine cavity from tissue remnants, blood, or polyps. D&C can be performed for various indications, such as menstrual cycle disorders, uterine bleeding, suspected uterine diseases, or the need for a biopsy for further investigation.

D&C Procedure at the "Helyos" Center:

1.Diagnosis:

  • An examination is performed initially, including an ultrasound of the uterus to determine any deviations or growths.
  • If necessary, blood tests or tissue biopsies may be conducted to detect infections or pathologies.

  • The procedure is carried out under local or general anesthesia, depending on the patient's individual needs.
  • Using a special instrument (curette), the doctor removes tissue from the uterine cavity. The procedure takes a few minutes and carries minimal risk of complications.
  • If the D&C is performed for diagnostic purposes, the collected tissue is sent for laboratory analysis.

3.Rehabilitation:

  • After the procedure, the patient may experience mild pain or cramping in the lower abdomen, which typically subsides within a few hours.
