Patient's question:
After getting married, she has never been pregnant. She doesn't know what the problem is and is looking for tests for uterine developmental abnormalities.Doctor's answer:
1. Gynecological examination: The uterus is smaller than normal, with a slender cervix and a small cervical os. The body-cervix ratio is 1:1 or 1:2.2. Sex hormone determination: FSH, LH, E2, P, and T levels are measured using radioimmunoassay or enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).
3. Ultrasound: The length, width, and thickness of the uterus can be measured. Further diagnosis is possible.
4. Medical history: Patients with this condition often have a history of an abnormal body-cervix ratio, a small external cervical os, extreme anteflexion or retroflexion of the uterus, dysmenorrhea, hypomenorrhea, amenorrhea, and infertility.
