Does embryonic arrest definitely require a uterine curettage?
After embryo arrest, it is necessary to terminate the pregnancy in a timely manner, but it is not always necessary to undergo a uterine curettage; medication can also be taken orally to help expel the pregnancy sac. Oral medication can stimulate the uterus and soften the cervix to cause uterine contractions and expel the pregnancy sac outside the uterus. However, if the embryo arrest occurs later in the pregnancy, then an artificial abortion is required, which can be done by direct curettage or uterine clearing to help expel the pregnancy tissue. Therefore, it is recommended to go to the hospital for an ultrasound examination after embryo arrest, and then decide whether to choose medical abortion or uterine clearing based on the timing of the examination. (The specific medication should be taken under the guidance of a doctor.)
