Can someone tell me what this says please.

Yesterday I went in to have hysteroscopy and removal of polyp. The nurse said the Consultant couldn't find any polyps. But I can't read what this word says.

It says curettage which means they scrape out the lining of the uterus. Hope you’re feeling well.

Curettage?

Thank you all I honestly couldn't make it out and I tried reading it few times .

I don't really understand why he did it though if he couldn't find any polyp. I hope he calls next week so I can ask him about it.

@LickYouLikeACrispPacket thank you I was in so much pain this morning I was crying thankfully codeine and the two paracetamol I took helped a bit.

I had this done last year and they punctured my uterus by accident which wasn’t great! It was very painful for a day or two and then settled down fine but keep taking painkillers if you need them and watch you don’t get constipated on the codeine!

😱What did they do when they punctured your uterus? Did they just let it heal or what.

I was so worried about that but when he said it happens 1/100 I relaxed a little.
Yeah the nurse warned me about constipation on the codeine.

It just healed itself. It was really sore when I came round and they wanted to keep me in overnight but I begged to go home and they let me because I am a nurse and so promised to watch for signs of infection. It was fine though, didn’t cause any issues at all. Sounds worse than it was 😂
