Hello,
Thanks for coming to HCM. It is unclear from your description why D&C is adviced. Please tell us more about ultrasound report finding and if you are pregnant. Kindly note, you have rights as a patient to ask for clarifications on all your concerns before going for any procedure including D&C. I would advice you talk to your gynecologist before going for the procedure. Also, ensure that the procedure is done by a trained doctor.
Wish you good health.
