Because of your abortion, your doctor still may have to do a DNC:

Procedure
D&C may be performed on an outpatient basis at a clinic or as an inpatient in a hospital surgical room. Patient positioning is like that of a pap smear: the patient lies in a supine position with the feet in the stirrups. A speculum is inserted to hold the vaginal canal open. Rods are used to dilate, or open, the cervix. A curette, a rod with a circular end, is inserted through the cervix and used to obtain a sample of the endometrium or clean the endometrial canal of debris.
