What is incomplete uterine septum? The hazards of incomplete uterine septum

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Hello. Because the uterine septum has fewer blood vessels than normal uterine muscle tissue and more fibrous tissue, it hinders the normal implantation of the fertilized egg. Additionally, the endometrium covering the septum responds poorly to hormonal stimulation, and the septum can also obstruct normal placental growth, leading to early fetal death. Therefore, the uterine septum affects pregnancy and is prone to causing miscarriage and premature birth. Once discovered, it should be treated early, and the septum can be removed via hysteroscopic surgery. This is a minimally invasive surgical treatment, with no significant bleeding during the procedure, minimal trauma, and rapid recovery. Postoperatively, an intrauterine device (IUD) can be inserted, and artificial cycles can be used to prevent adhesion. After one year, pregnancy can be attempted.
