Can Dilation And Curettage Procedure Help Diagnose Hyperplasia?

How accurate are the results of a D&C after a uterine ablation? I am 56 and overweight. I was recently diagnosed with hyperplasia and I am scheduled for a D&C in about a week. The ablation was performed about 5 yrears ago because of heavy, irregular periods. I still have irrgular periods but they are much lighter than beofre the ablation. Thanks. Cindi Maestas YYYY@YYYY

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
You had hyperplasia in past and you have gone through ablation.

Again you may have endometrial hyperplasia.


D & C material should be sent for histopathological examination. It is best technique to diagnose the endometrial hyperplasia. Whether is simple hyperplasia or complex hyperplasia and whether there are atypical changes or not. Then you should take treatment accordingly.

So go for D &C and histopathological examination and take treatment accordingly.

Hope I have answered your question. If you have any doubts then feel free to ask me. I will be happy to answer.
Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
