[quote=Anonymous]I've had several missed miscarriages; I think the in-office non-sedated D+C was the quickest resolution for a miscarriage for me, but with my most recent missed miscarriage during Covid I was not able to schedule an in-office D+C for about a week and a half after the miscarriage was noticed. I didn't want to wait that long and so elected to do cytotec over the weekend. There was a lot more tissue than I expected there to be-- I passed the full sac and thought I was done, but a sono showed that there was still retained tissue so I needed to do another round of cytotec and have more followup sonos and later a saline sono to ensure we got it all. I think in the future if I was going the chemically managed route I'd take both rounds of cytotec up front regardless. It was more painful than the in-office D+C, I don't think I'd want to try cytotec after 9 weeks gestation. I will note the in-hospital general anesthesia D+C was the hardest for me-- had to report into labor and delivery to have it, and the bills came in at erratic times for months afterwards and it was just salt in the wound. anesthesiologist was out of network so that was $1300 on its own out of pocket. The in-office D+C was like $500, was over much more quickly and without much pain. However both D+Cs they sent me home with a scrip for opiates without actually having someone licensed to issue controlled scrips sign it, so in both cases I could only manage the pain with tylenol. Cytotec was cheap and my RE also properly prescribed anti-anxiety meds, anti-nausea meds, and a couple pills of oxy up front.[/quote]
