A member asked:

I learned that i am having a miscarriage i chose to let it pass naturally, how long does it normally take?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Variable: Usually the process is complete in a day or so. Sometimes all of the products conception are not expelled and the pregnancy test may remain positive. You may wish to do a home pregnancy test. If you have not had sex since the miscarriage and the tests is positive you may need curettage. Wish you good health!
