    Sorry you're going through this.  The polyp could have been removed during the D&C.  Did the doctor provide you with a copy of the pathology report? I would suggest that you get yourself off to another gynecologist who will work with you to resolve this situation and find out what's going on with you.

    Best of luck to you, and please let me know how you get on. xx
