Hi, Years Ago I Had A Miscarriage And After Several

default
Posted on Mon, 30 Mar 2020
Question: Hi, years ago I had a miscarriage and after several months of "regrowing" had to insist on a D&C. It worked miracles. Fast foward 20 years and I still have a 38inch waistline but typically wear between 10-12. I work out with a personal trainer 3/week for the last 6 months and consider myself to be generally healthy. I am toned and strong but my waistline doesn't budge. Is it possible that my uterine walls have hardened and I might possibily need another D&C? I am 52 and believe I am in menopause.

Brief Answer:
Please elaborate.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for sharing your health concern with us.

I have gone through your query and would like to know more about your gynecological history.

1. Please furnish more details about your abortion history.
2. Did you ever experience any hormone imbalances and/or have undergone treatment for the same?
3. Did you have any gynecological exam recently? If so, please upload reports.
4. Any other relevant information that you think will be helpful.

From the description you have given, it is not established that you are experiencing any gynecological problems at present. Therefore, apart from the routine check up, specific management is not required. The excess waistline is unlikely to be caused by the uterus. You need further evaluation and have to plan proper management.

Hope this helps. Please let me know if I can assist you.

regards
Shanti.V.
