Likely, yes: In most cases, retained products of conception and/or blood clot left behind from a miscarriage will pass on their own. In some cases, patients may require a procedure called dilation and curettage, which can be done in the office or in a hospital. It is important to follow up with your ob-gyn to avoid complications of retained products of conception such as infection.
