A member asked:

How soon can you become pregnant after having a d&c as a result of a miscarriage?

Dr. Nikolaos Zacharias answered

Specializes in Maternal-Fetal Medicine

As soon as you want.: Provided that the pathological examination of the D&C specimen is normal (check with your gynecologist), as soon as your mood permits you can try to get pregnant again - older dictum to wait for 6 months is baseless and results in decreased fertility rates. Take Folic Acid 1-5 mg daily and best of luck!
