Hi I have had a few curettes done for missed MCs and one after my first baby, retained placenta !!! if they say you need it done get it done, that will be what will stop you from having another baby if you get a bad infection. Why don't you ask about a twilight anesethic, I don't believe it does'nt take long for the currette to be done and you don't feel anything while they do it under a twilight (but are in a lighter sleep, than a GA) you wake up straight away and feel like you have had the best sleep ever, there are no side effects and you can go home soon afterwards, I believe they used to use them for abortions, whether they still do I have no idea? but I think worth asking about.
