NP. Welcome to my world. 14 miscarriages, one of which took six months to fully clear out - but that was a "natural" miscarriage. It is a definitely odd that they are still finding more after those two procedures. Are you sure you don't have fibroids? What are your HCG levels?

Go have a consult with Dr. F at GW infertility. Alternately, if he's still practicing, Dr. Maddox at Capitol Women's Care cleaned me up after a hellish loss. I am a huge, huge fan of the women's care at Inova Fairfax.

This is OP. I am absolutely going somewhere else!!!!

Is it possible there was some medical malpractice with the first d&c? I would go to a different doctor with a completely different practice. I wouldn't have another procedure done with your current practice.

No advice, but this has happened to so many people I know at Shady Grove. What is going on there?

yes, definitely rare. the dr told me that in her entire time practicing at shady grove, she has never seen this.
she just said i must address this before we can move forward.

It's been four months since my first D&C, two months since my hysteroscopy for retained POC, and am just now finding out that I need to have yet another procedure for still retained products of conception. Was wondering if the fact that it's taking so long (and multiple procedures) to address the POC would reduce my ability to get pregnant.

You would have to ask your doctor but I think you will be fine going forward. It seems pretty rare for this to happen. Has the doctor given you any answers?

Not sure what the question is. I have had multiple D&Cs and was eventually able to get pregnant and keep it.

Anyone have to go through multiple D&Cs or hysteroscopies for retained products of conception? Were you eventually able to get pregnant again?
