Patient's question:
My result from the transvaginal ultrasound is an incomplete septate uterus. The doctor said it increases the risk of miscarriage. I just got married recently, and I want to know if an incomplete septate uterus always requires surgery? What is the chance of getting pregnant? I'm very worried and anxious. It would be a great help if a kind teacher could tell me. Thank you very much!Doctor's answer:
Hello, incomplete septate uterus has a smaller uterine cavity volume. If the embryo implants on the septum, insufficient blood flow can lead to early miscarriage, habitual abortion, preterm birth, etc. Surgical treatment is recommended.Uterine septum is a type of uterine malformation formed during the congenital development of the uterus. Its presence can cause infertility, difficulty conceiving, or increase the risk of ectopic pregnancy, fetal demise, natural miscarriage, preterm birth, and abnormal. For those who have already been diagnosed and have a history of one fetal demise, it is best to undergo surgery before conceiving again.
Generally, the hospital stay for surgery is about 5 days. It is recommended to visit a specialized hospital for further evaluation and treatment based on the specific condition.
