Need to know

I want to know if someone with past history of d and c get pregnant in the future. Really need to know

I think overall that most women who have a d&c go on to have babies in the future.  Agree that it is the cases of repeated procedures that are more of a concern.  

Here is a link to look at that has information on issues that contribute to a woman having difficulty conceiving.  Smoking, drinking, age, hormonal issues are all contributors.

Scar tissue from any type of procedure (including d&c) can happen and can impact fertility.  There is also data to indicate that someone may have increased fertility directly following a d & c.  

However, I agree with rockrose that if you are miscarrying (and sorry if you are), naturally is the way to go unless your doctor tells you to have a d & C and then I would always follow their medical advice.  And agree as well to be careful of the internet and the biased that any one site may have to push a hidden agenda.  That's why I linked the .gov site for womens health and infertility.  good luck

Yes,  D&Cs affect future uterine health.  There are two kinds - scraping and suction and apparently scraping does more damage to the uterus.

Repeated D&Cs can lead to infertility or uterine rupture during pregnancy.  

This is a good reason,  if you are miscarrying,  to miscarry naturally and avoid a D&C if possible.  The more D&Cs you have,  the more at risk you are to secondary infertility.  

You may want to google does D&C affect fertility.  Be watchful for antiabortion websites that trade on thin science.

Yes. A d and c should not affect your fertility
