D&C and AF questions

So I have a few questions for those who had a D&C before. I had mine 6 months ago. I know a D&C can make for some pretty wonky cycles. It took about 45 days for AF to show up post D&C and I know every body is different. My question is, (and I can't seem to find an answer on Dr. Google, I left a message for my real doctor) after my D&C, my flow has been very, very different. It comes regular give or take a day and last 4-5 days (same as before) but it is heavier and I pass clots every cycle. I don't have bleeding in between either. I doubt it's left over tissue from 6 months ago. The clots remind me of when I was almost done MC very early. Small bloody clots (sorry, TMI), but it makes me nervous, especially since we will be TTC now. Has this happened to anyone? I know TB has a post D&C something on here, can someone point me to it as well?? Thanks so much in advance.

    I haven't had a D&C but passed my three miscarriages naturally. After the third one my RE did an hsg to check my uterus and tubes. We found a blockage of one of my tubes and I ended up having surgery to clear everything out. I do believe, in my case, in contributed to my successful pregnancy. I will probably ask my RE to do that again if/when we decide to TTC again, just to be on the safe side.

    Thank you for your replies. My Dr finally called me back and said it is fine. They get a lot of questions like that after D&C and births. What a relief. Thanks so much!

    Mine have been super light since my D&C which make me nervous too because that is a sign of a thin uterine lining.  Hopefully the heaviness of everything means your ute lining is nice and thick and ready for an egg to get nice and comfy!

    This did not happen to me so I don't have any advice. I think talking to your doc is the right idea. I'm so sorry you're going through this too. It's just the icing on the stupid effing cake... (((HUGS)))
