Do hysteroscopic curettage require hospitalization
Hysteroscopy is a new, minimally invasive gynecological diagnostic and therapeutic technique used for intracavitary examination and treatment of the uterus. It is a fiber optic endoscope that includes hysteroscopy, energy system, light source system, perfusion system, and imaging system. It uses the anterior part of the endoscope to enter the uterine cavity and has a magnifying effect on the observed area, making it the preferred examination method for gynecological hemorrhagic diseases and intrauterine lesions, which are not the same concept. Generally, this type of curettage surgery can be performed in the outpatient department, and most of them do not require hospitalization.
Precautions after curettage
1. Pay attention to rest and strengthen nutrition. After curettage, patients should rest in bed for 2-3 days, and then gradually increase their activity time by getting out of bed.
2. Keep the external genitalia clean and hygienic, and prohibit sexual intercourse.
3. Observe the bleeding situation and strictly prevent the condition from worsening. If vaginal bleeding persists for more than a week after curettage surgery, accompanied by symptoms such as lower abdominal pain, fever, cloudy and foul smelling vaginal discharge, it is necessary to seek medical attention promptly.
4. Pay attention to contraception to avoid getting pregnant again. After curettage, the ovarian and uterine functions gradually recover, and the ovaries ovulate on schedule. If you don't stick to contraception, you will soon get pregnant again.
