D and c ?

D and C stands for dilation and curettage, which is a medical procedure used to remove tissue from the uterus. It is commonly performed to diagnose and treat certain conditions such as abnormal uterine bleeding, miscarriage, or to remove remaining tissue after a surgical abortion. During the procedure, the cervix is dilated, and a curette (a spoon-shaped instrument) is used to scrape the uterine lining and remove any abnormal tissue.
