Are you allowed to eat and drink before endometrial scratch? Having it tomorrow and my clinic hasn't told me so I'm assuming I can? I'm not due to have it til 1.50pm.

Yes you can. You won’t be having anaesthetic, in fact you won’t “need” pain relief but I do recommend taking a couple of paracetamol beforehand for the slight cramping you’ll experience, and a fullish bladder as it makes the process quicker and smoother xx

Yes you can eat and drink as normal. My clinic advised me to take 2 paracetamol and 2 ibuprofen an hr before the procedure is due. May be worth giving them a call just to check what they advise xx
