How to take care of a uterine fistula after a miscarriage?

Patient's question:

Last week, I had a miscarriage due to a uterine septum. The doctor said that having a uterine septum makes it very easy to have a miscarriage, and there's a high chance of miscarriage if you get pregnant. How should I take care of myself after a miscarriage due to a uterine septum? Do I need to have a postpartum rest? Will it be very difficult to get pregnant in the future?

Doctor's answer:

A uterine septum is a condition where there is a longitudinal septum inside the uterine cavity. After conception, it is very easy to have a miscarriage, or it can lead to premature birth in the later stages of pregnancy. It is recommended that you go to a regular hospital for a minimally invasive surgery to remove the uterine septum within 3-7 days after your menstrual period ends.
After a miscarriage, you should first avoid sexual activity for one month. Then, take some anti-inflammatory medication to prevent infection. Always maintain cleanliness in the external genital area.
