scared of infection after dnc


i had my dnc tuesday night and stopped bleeding wednesday night, me and my partner had a heart to heart last night (saturday) and we ended up getting emotional and then having sex, my partner ejaculated in me (something he promised not to do!) so now i'm worrying about infection, it all felt fine during sex and it felt normal even though it's only been 5 days since my op, i am still not bleeding either
thanks

Im sure it'll be fine hun. As long as you feel ok youve had no pain/more bleeding etc. When i had my D&C we didnt wait much longer than you have and i was absolutely fine. just keep an eye out for discomfort & if your worried go GP ok hun. Hope your ok emotionally after op aswel chicken? take care x x Lov Caz x x

everyones body is different and some people bleed more than others, I personally wouldn't be concerned about not bleeding my friend didn't bleed much after hers whereas another friend bled for days. I was ment to have the surgery this week but passedit naturally. I wouldn't be too concerned about infection just keep an eye on things. I was told to keep an eye for any strange smells or strange coloured discharge. If you are still worried go to the gp or nhs direct, they won't mind at all. I hope you are feelng ok xxxx

Hi sweetheart,
Shouldn't be a problem. I went to the doctors the day after my medical and asked for anti-biotics and they gave me two different types to prevent infection. I sorta lied and said the hospital told me too and see said it was very common practice?! Maybe you could do that? But honestly, I wouldn't worry.
