Can D&C cause hormonal imbalance?

1. Hormonal Imbalance and D&C:

   • Dilation and Curettage (D&C) generally does not cause hormonal imbalances. It involves the uterus lining, not hormone-producing glands.

2. Post-Procedure Effects:

   • Temporary menstrual changes or spotting may occur but are usually short-lived.

3. When to Consult a Doctor:

   • If persistent menstrual irregularities or symptoms suggestive of hormonal imbalance occur, consult your gynecologist.

Key Points:

• D&C typically does not cause lasting hormonal imbalance.
• Temporary changes post-procedure are common.
• Persistent symptoms should be evaluated by a healthcare professional.
