Cramp post D&C: In most cases its expected that 12 days post D&C cramping would have stopped . It would be good idea to consult doctor for examination , swabs and repeat pelvic USS to rule out any retained products of conception and infection .

Follow up exam: Typically a gynecologic exam is recommeded 1 - 2 weeks after a D&C to address any problems that the D&C may have caused.
