I'm so sorry for your loss. I assume your D&C was March and not May. Sometimes the first period following a D&C can be very heavy, however the fact that this has been going on for 10 days now and is still heavy would suggest that you need to see your Dr to be checked out. It could just be an abnormally long period but it's always best to be checked.
I'd go back to see him again if the bleeding is still bad after 14 days. Hopefully it will start to lessen. So sorry you're going through this, it's horrid :(
thanks for the reply. yes it was march (spelling error). i did call my doctor, told me i worry to much bleeding will taper off. i was worried mainly because of the amount of clots coming of and the volume as well. thank you for making me feel normal.
