Your surgeon will advise you on whether surgery to remove any remaining pregnancy tissue is the best option for you. This may depend on the stage of your pregnancy, the amount of bleeding you're having and your own preference. Surgery for miscarriage is a short procedure to empty your womb. It's known as an evacuation of retained products of conception(ERPC or ERPOC).The operation is usually done under general anaesthesia(you will be asleep during the procedure).During the procedure, your surgeon will pass a soft plastic tube through your cervix into your womb. The pregnancy material is removed by suction.
