I only had D&C yesterday so im obviously not there yet but im just trying to look ahead.
When did dr tell you that you could start TTC again and when did you actually start? Any luck?

-1st doctor said 1 cycle.
I got pregnant that next cycle.
-2nd doctor said 3 months.
I think doctors range from 1-3 months on their recommendation.
Your doctor didnt tell you ?
He'll probably mention it at your follow up visit.
How are you feeling ?

Re: How long did dr tell you that you could start TTC again?
I have been reading A LOT about this recently...and Not what my Dr. said but Dr's tend to have a set statement they follow...
They say that at least one full cycle.
The first cycle , especially after a D & C , you almost never ovulate. And most dont get a period till more then 4 weeks after their D & C which shows this.
Plus you need time for your HCG levels to come down to normal. I am 4 weeks tomm. Past my M/C and D &C and I still have HCG in my system. So it could take a while.
After that...I think your good to go.
There is though a higher risk of M/C in the first 3 cycles after a M/C if you had a D&C.. Which is probably why Dr's say the 3 cycle rule... The thinking about this is that it takes up to 3 cycles for the uterine lining to get thick enough to support a PG. Especially after a d &C , where its thinned out a lot.
Also 3 cycles is techniclaly only 2 AF's.
HTH!

My doctor said I could try again after I got my first period after the D&C. My first AF came exactly 5 weeks after the procedure, but has been very irregular and impossible to track, so I'm waiting for my next AF.

They told me no BD for 3 weeks after D&C.
I went for my 3 week follow up appt. after my D&C, and she told me that I could do whatever I wanted.
Nothing about waiting.
