D&C failed, Drugs failed, what next?

Hi ppl, I had a miscarriage anda D&C 4 weeks ago. I was still testing positive at the weeks. A scan showed not all tissue was removed (small amount left). I was given drugs and I’ve had two doses. No bleeding at all so they haven’t worked. Do you know what happens next? TIA x

Im currently trying to go through a natural miscarriage and I don’t have any advice, but I just wanted to say I’m so sorry you’ve had to go through all of this ❤️

I had to do a repeat D&c due to the retained tissue becoming septic I was really unwell. Just be mindful if you have fevers or feel unwell go strait to emergency ! Goodluck x

If misoprostal isn't helping expell the tissue, they may have to do another d&c or hysteroscopic resection. I had retained tissue and they did a hysteroscopic resection.

not to scare you, but take this very serious. remaining tissue can cause you to get sepsis and one thing leads to another quickly.. i saw my patient go through it unfortunately. Go to your emergency asap to get it all out. Sorry for your loss ❤️‍🩹

Thank you so much everyone. And for those of you who have had to go through these terrible times, I’m genuinely so sorry it has, or is happening to you. It’s truly devastating. I had no idea all of this was a possibility and you most can’t move on physically or mentally. Sending you all my love 🖤

Just an update, I’ve had an internal examination and the doctor found Sundays tablets still in there as they hadn’t dissolved. EPU has said that wasn’t possible when I asked yesterday but I can confirm that it certainly is. My HCG has gone down to 7mIU/mL without a bleed so maybe the HCG is self eliminating? Xx

I’m sorry you’re going through this. Sending love and know that brighter days are ahead ❤️

@Michelle thank you Michelle. It’s truly awful. How is your fertility journey going? ✨✨

Not great. After a few losses during IVF, we no longer have any more embryos left so not really sure what that means for us right now. Although saying that I’m currently 11 days late but pregnancy tests all coming back negative. I have a consultation with the recurrent miscarriage clinic this week so will see what they have to say x

@Michelle let us know how you get on. My DMs are open if you want to chat. It’s tougher in your 40s. Let me know and I’ll pop you a message xx

Thank you 😘 Here to support your journey too!
