DILATATION AND CURETTAGE IN BANGALORE
Dilatation and Curettage in Bangalore at Genesis Hospital
Dilatation and curettage in Bangalore is available at the Bangalore Genesis Hospital. It is a therapeutic gynecological procedure involving the dilation of the cervix, and the removal of part of the lining of the uterus or the contents of the uterus by scraping or curettage.
Dilatation and curettage in Bangalore should be performed by a qualified gynecologist or surgeon as it is a delicate procedure. In fact, it is the standard procedure to deal with incomplete miscarriages in many countries.
Dilatation and curettage is commonly performed in the following cases:
- Abnormal uterine bleeding marked by unusually heavy menstrual flow
- To remove excess uterine lining relating to conditions like aspolycystic ovary syndrome, where periods do not occur to remove the tissue.
- Abnormal vaginal bleeding
- To remove retained products of conception (POC), such as during a miscarriage.
Abnormal uterine bleeding can be caused by various factors, such as:
- Hormonal imbalance
- Uterine fibroids
- Endometrial hyperplasia
- Miscarriage

Procedures involved in dilatation and curettage at our hospital are:

Dilatation and curettage is a procedure with many risks. Some of the risks involved are:
- Reaction to anesthesia
- Infection
- Uterine perforation
- Intrauterine adhesion leading to complicated future pregnancies
Patients who have undergone a D&C procedure might also suffer from temporal cramps or backache. Vaginal bleeding or spotting which occurs for a few days is also normal. Patients are advised to abstain from having sex for around two weeks until the wound heals. Nevertheless, most women can return to work a day after the surgery, and surgery success rates are very high.
If you are unwilling to undergo a D&C, alternatives are available. A hysteroscopy is an alternative to D&C with lower risks. Miscarriages can also be treated using drugs, which are a safer, non-invasive method.
