Hi XXXXXXX

Thanks for posting your query

Your report is suggestive of retained products of conception still present inside the uterus and you would require Dilatation and curettage for clearance urgently, as it can lead to infection otherwise.

It is a medical emergency, You need to consult your gynecologist urgently for a proper evaluation by physical examination, Blood investigations to rule out infection and complications associated with retained products of conception.

Hope this answers your query.I will be available for follow up query.

Regards.
