Patient's question:
I've been divorced for several years and haven't been able to get pregnant. I'm usually in good health, but my menstrual cycle is a bit irregular—sometimes the flow is heavy, sometimes it's light, and it's often accompanied by abdominal pain. A few days ago, I had a thorough check-up, and the doctor said it's uterine infertility. How is uterine infertility treated?Doctor's answer:
Infertility caused by uterine issues varies in treatment depending on the specific cause and condition.1. Uterine Fibroids
Infertility caused by uterine fibroids or other tumors is best treated through surgical removal. The type of surgery depends on the patient's specific situation. Small fibroids can be treated with vaginal myomectomy or enucleation, while larger fibroids may require laparoscopic or abdominal myomectomy.
2. Uterine Septum
Uterine septum can lead to female infertility. Minimally invasive surgeries such as hysteroscopy and laparoscopy are commonly used. The main procedure involves removing the septum under laparoscopic guidance using a hysteroscope.
3. Uterine Dysplasia
Infertility caused by uterine dysplasia may result in symptoms such as amenorrhea and dysmenorrhea. Hormonal therapy is often effective in treating this condition.
