Guest guest Posted May 2, 2001 Report Share Posted May 2, 2001 Janice: Welcome to the group although I'm sorry you have need to be here. I'm sorry to jump right into this and hope I don't upset you but I REALLY think you need to cancel this surgery on the 16th and find an Asherman's expert. Asherman's should NEVER be treated with a D & C!! That is literally the WORST thing that can be done. You are, unfortunately, not the first woman in the group whose doctor has recommended (or even performed!) a D & C as a way of " treating " Asherman's. The simple fact is that overly aggressive scraping of the uterus is what causes Asherman's in the first place so doing MORE scraping via D & C only stands to make it worse. Let us help you find an expert in your area. We have a list of Asherman's doctors we refer to as the " A " list which are all uterine surgeons that have extensive experience with Asherman's. You may have to fight for a referral to see one, but it's worth it in the long-run as we now know that the first surgery is also the BEST and sometimes ONLY chance women have of restoring their uterus. Hang in there and keep your chin up....where do you live? Gwen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
