If the medication you are using doesn't help the pain, a variety of birth control pills may do the job. the mini pill is specifically progesterone so I don't know if that is what you meant. If nothing else works, a D&C is not always the best choice. Your cervix can be dilated in the office under local anesthetic if that's what your doctor thinks is best. We have at least one article on D&Cs on our site. Use SEARCH.

Hope this helps and write back anytime for more information.
