How long can I get pregnant after hydatidiform mole curettage

It is generally recommended to wait at least six months to a year after hydatidiform mole curettage before trying to get pregnant to ensure that the body and uterus recover well, while monitoring changes in hCG levels in the body.

Hydatidiform mole is an abnormal pregnancy caused by abnormal trophoblastic proliferation during the development of the fertilized egg. Curettage is the main treatment, but hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) should still be monitored for a period of time after surgery, because premature pregnancy may mask the signal of recurrence or malignant transformation of hydatidiform mole.

After surgery, hCG levels need to be checked regularly. Patients are usually advised to test once a week until they show normal levels for three consecutive times, and then monitor once a month for 6 months to 1 year. If hCG fails to return to normal or rises abnormally, it may indicate a recurrence or worsening of the disease. At this time, you need to contact your doctor as soon as possible for further examination and treatment. It is also necessary to avoid sexual intercourse for a period of time after surgery to prevent infection and affect uterine recovery.

During the postoperative recuperation period, pay attention to ensuring a balanced diet and eat a moderate amount of high-protein, vitamin-rich foods to help the body recover. Women who have the habit of smoking or drinking should quit as soon as possible, and maintain adequate sleep and a happy mood, which is conducive to the overall recovery of the body. If you plan to get pregnant, it is recommended to undergo a comprehensive physical examination under the guidance of a doctor, including an assessment of the thickness of the endometrium and overall health status, to ensure that the new pregnancy is safer and more stable.
