A member asked:
Is it true that most natural miscarriages or medical miscarriages end up needing surgical intervention anyway? no fhb at 7weeks 1day. no bleeding yet.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not most: Some but not most spontaneous or medically induced miscarriages end up with retained tissue for which a curettage must be performed. Discuss your particular case with your doctor who can tell you the risks and benefits of the alternatives and make a decision together.Unfortunately, even those of us with crystal balls, can't tell you with certainty whether or not a surgical procedure will be needed
