ask: I recently had a D&C (3 days ago). I had the normal bleeding afterwords, but today I started bleeding very heavy. Can I be havin

Debs, if you see this, please come back and finish your question. Based on what you were able to write, let's talk about bleeding after a D&C.

Dilation and curettage (D&C) is a surgical procedure. While relatively minor, normal recovery includes irregular bleeding or spotting for up to two weeks, and cramps similar to menstrual cramps.

If you are having severe bleeding, you need to call your doctor. "Severe" is characterized as soaking more than two large sanitary pads in a row in an hour, for 2 hours in a row, or having heavy bleeding for 12 hours in a row.

Here's a page on D&C that includes information about recovery:

Don't forget that everyone is different, and your body may react differently to a D&C than someone else's would. Your hormone levels may have something to do with this. Don't hesitate to call your doctor if you're having these symptoms. That's what they're there for, and if you're bleeding excessively they would want to know. There are medicines they can give you if needed to help stop the bleeding.

Let us know what else we can find out for you.

i do nt have period doctor told me do operation i don t want to do operation what to do have period

Anon, we really need more information from you.

I understand that you are 25. How many months or years has it been since you had a period?

Do you have pain? If so, where?

Are you sexually active?

Do you have any symptoms?

Can you talk to your doctor and find out why he wants to do this D&C?

(It is not a difficult or scary operation, by the way. Did you look at the link about that has information about D&Cs?)

Please take the time to tell us more so that maybe we can help you.

Anon,

You are 25 years old. Please don't be afraid of your doctor. There is no reason to be afraid. You should be able to ask questions and get information about your own body. Can you take someone with you -- your mom, or a friend -- who would help you ask questions and maybe take notes for you so you could find out more about what's going on?

I'm afraid that there's no way to just "have" a period without knowing what's going on with your body. But your doctor should and can spend time with you helping you understand this.

Anon,

I'm so sorry you feel that way. I know that when a person doesn't feel happy with the way they look, it can make them feel shy and awkward in many situations.

But I am concerned about your health. And whether or not you need a D&C has nothing to do with your beauty! Did your doctor somehow make you feel bad about yourself?

Could you see a female doctor instead? Would that be better?
