When the patient’s uterine lining is 15mm thick, it is necessary to judge whether it is necessary to scrape the uterus according to the specific situation.
1. When the patient undergoes ultrasonography 3 to 5 days before menstruation, an endometrial thickness of 15mm is a normal physiological phenomenon. However, provided that the patient has no other uncomfortable reactions, the patient does not need to carry out scraping at this time.
And the patient can undergo ultrasonography again about 3 days after menstruation, if the thickness of endometrium is about 3mm at this time, it is normal and no need to carry out scraping.
2. If the difference between the ultrasound examination and the menstrual period is relatively long or there is persistent vaginal bleeding, it means that the endometrial thickness of 15mm is abnormal, which may be caused by the failure of the endometrial lining to shed normally. Treatment needs to be chosen under the judgment of the doctor, and scraping is needed if necessary.
Curettage can be used to treat endometrial polyps and post-abortion residuals, as well as endometrial tissue biopsy. However, improper operation may damage the patient’s endometrium or cervix, so the patient should follow the doctor’s instructions and carry out all the examinations before performing curettage to avoid damage to the body. Consultation with a specialized doctor is recommended for specific cases.
