If I was pregnant during a DNC to remove uterine polyps, but didn't know, could I still be pregnant? Or would the surgery have messed with implantation?

Question

I had sex on my ovulation day, and I'm 7dpo and m noticing that I have really sore nipples and a couple of pregnancy symptoms. My period isn't due until August 31. Is there even a possibility that I could be pregnant even though I just recently had a DNC to remove uterine polyps?

Answer

Wouldnt they check for pregnancy before doing it?

Answer

Take a test if/when you miss your period. If positive see your dr asap and also make sure to rule out ectopic pregnancy.

Answer

It's entirely possible if it was super early and the fertilized egg was still up in your Fallopian tube. I'm not sure how habitable a place your uterus is right after they've done a d&c; but what a little miracle if it implanted and took! Good luck, test around your missed period and update so we know! ❤️

Answer

I thought the same thing when I had my second D&C; for the same pregnancy. I asked and was told they could tell the difference.
