I'm a bit worried because I had a D&C procedure just for a scan to check for any remains after two weeks. Then I had to repeat it with the suction method. Is it normal that I haven't gotten my period yet and it's been almost three weeks? Am I safe?

Based on your description, it seems like you underwent a dilation and curettage (D&C) procedure followed by a repeat procedure using suction. It is normal for your menstrual cycle to be irregular or delayed after such procedures. However, if you are concerned about the delay in receiving your menses, you should consult your healthcare provider for further evaluation. They may prescribe medications such as Medroxyprogesterone (Provera) to help induce your period.
