Uterine evacuation affects ovulation

Uterine curettage surgery may cause hormonal changes in the body. Women may experience a short-term drop in estrogen and progesterone levels in the days following uterine evacuation surgery. This may lead to changes in ovulation, including shorter or longer ovulation, and changes in the menstrual cycle.

Uterine curettage surgery may affect uterine recovery. Uterine curettage surgery may cause damage to the uterus, which will take time to recover and heal. If the uterus does not recover well, it may lead to problems such as irregular menstrual cycles or spotting in the future.

Although uterine curettage surgery may have an impact on ovulation, most women will return to normal menstrual cycles and ovulation after surgery. If a woman has any problems after a uterine curettage surgery, she should talk to her doctor.
