Hello
After a miscarriage, if there is any retained products in the uterus it is best to get a dilatation and evacuation (to clean out the uterine cavity) done to prevent complications like increased bleeding and/or infection of the genital tract. So it is best to consult a gynecologist regarding the matter and do as advised.
Take care
