Can a quick scope procedure help women get pregnant faster after miscarriage?

NCT ID NCT04804332

First seen Jul 30, 2026 · Last updated Jul 31, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

After a miscarriage treated without surgery, some women still have leftover pregnancy tissue in the womb. This trial tests whether removing that tissue with a small camera-guided procedure (operative hysteroscopy) helps women become pregnant sooner compared to simply waiting and monitoring. The study includes women under 40 who want to try for another baby within six months.
