How many days after diagnostic curettage to stop bleeding

In daily life, every woman will experience some conditions as she ages and her body changes. A woman's uterus is the place where new life is nurtured. During sexual intercourse, the uterus will also undergo a series of significant changes. When abnormalities occur in the uterus, you should go to the hospital for treatment. The purpose of diagnostic curettage is to scrape the contents of the uterine cavity for pathological examination to assist in diagnosis. If cervical lesions are suspected, the cervical canal and uterine cavity need to be examined in steps, which is called segmented diagnostic curettage.

Introduction

The purpose of diagnostic curettage is to scrape the contents of the uterine cavity for pathological examination to assist in diagnosis. If cervical lesions are suspected, the cervical canal and uterine cavity need to be examined in steps, which is called segmental diagnostic curettage.

Folding curettage classification

Diagnostic curettage scrapes the endometrium for pathological examination to determine whether the ovaries have ovulated and what the ovarian hormone levels are. When there is abnormal uterine bleeding, curettage can not only play a diagnostic role, but also a therapeutic role, because curettage often achieves the purpose of stopping bleeding. When should you do a curettage? If you want to know whether your ovaries have ovulated, you should do it before your period or within 12 hours of your period. If it is abnormal uterine bleeding, you can do a curettage at any time depending on the situation.

Folding inspection method

The method of judging the results of pathological examination is: the secretory phase of the endometrium indicates ovulation, and the proliferative phase of the endometrium indicates anovulation. Sexual intercourse is prohibited before and within one week after curettage to prevent infection. Antibiotics can be taken to prevent infection if necessary. You should rest for 1 week after the curettage.
