Dilation and Curettage (D&C)

D&C is an outpatient procedure done in the hospital used to evaluate the lining of the uterus. The uterus opening is stretched open to make it wider and a sample of the lining of the uterus is removed and sent to the laboratory. Recovery period is usually short. Some reasons for a D&C may be:

  • Changes in menstrual cycles including lighter, heavier, longer or shorter
  • Growths such as polyps or fibroids
  • Miscarriage to remove tissue that has remained in the uterus
