Patient's question:
Female, 27 years old, married for almost two years. Had a miscarriage in April 2004. Posterior uterus. So far, living with her husband for half a year without any contraception, but still not pregnant. Her family has been constantly pressuring her. What tests should she undergo?Doctor's answer:
Hello: It is recommended that you go to the hospital for tests to check your ovulation status and fallopian tube condition. At the same time, you should treat your retroverted uterus.Corrective Measures for a Retroverted Uterus: When trying to conceive with a retroverted uterus, corrective measures can be taken. The methods include:
① Lifting the hips after intercourse: Place a pillow under the woman's hips during or after intercourse to position her in a head-down, hip-up posture. This allows semen to accumulate in the posterior fornix, immersing the cervix in a pool of semen, which facilitates conception.
② Prone position after intercourse or kneeling behind during intercourse: This position helps semen accumulate in the anterior fornix of the vagina, making it easier for the elevated cervix to be immersed in semen.
③ Uterine round ligament shortening surgery or uterosuspension surgery: The effectiveness of these surgeries is uncertain, and they may recur several years later. Currently, this method is not widely recommended.
④ Pessary correction: Some women may first be manually to a uterus in the anterior position, followed by the short-term use of a pessary, which can provide temporary correction.
