What are the clinical manifestations of uterine septate?

Uterine septum is a common manifestation of uterine malformation. Uterine septum is very harmful to women, often causing repeated miscarriages or infertility. Even if you are pregnant, you are likely to experience some abnormal conditions during childbirth. Therefore, we must pay attention to it in normal times. Uterine septum will have the following clinical manifestations.

Clinical manifestations

Uterine septate is the most common uterine malformation and is associated with poor pregnancy outcomes. Uterine septate can lead to miscarriage, premature birth, breech presentation, premature rupture of membranes, placenta previa, abnormal postpartum bleeding and intrauterine growth retardation of the fetus.

1. Recurrent miscarriage

Some recurrent miscarriages are caused by uterine malformations, among which uterine septate accounts for the majority. Uterine septate occurs frequently in women with recurrent pregnancy failure, especially early pregnancy loss.

2. Infertility

It cannot be ruled out that uterine septum is one of the factors affecting conception in some infertile patients.

3. Ectopic pregnancy (also called extrauterine pregnancy)

Due to the complexity of uterine malformations, ectopic pregnancy (also known as extrauterine pregnancy) can often occur in closed uterine horns, rudimentary uterine horns, cervix or vaginal diverticula. Because of their rarity, pregnancies in this unusual location are often difficult to diagnose early.

4. Abnormal delivery

Due to the influence of the mediastinum, the uterine cavity is deformed, leading to an increased incidence of complications in late pregnancy. Uterine malformation can also lead to obstetric complications such as abnormal fetal position, uterine contraction dysfunction, and retained placenta.

5. Excessive vaginal discharge

A small number of patients may have a large amount of purulent and bloody leucorrhea, and some patients may have leucorrhea that resembles rotten flesh and has an infectious odor.

6. Irregular menstruation

If the patient has a relatively large uterine septum, the menstrual volume will increase significantly, the menstrual period will be prolonged, and irregular vaginal bleeding will occur.

7. Secondary anemia

If the patient has heavy menstruation for a long time, it is easy to cause secondary anemia. Generally, such patients have pale complexion and symptoms such as palpitations and general weakness.

At present, uterine septum can be treated through some effective methods. It is best to go to the hospital for examination as soon as possible when you find the above symptoms in your body, and try to take some effective methods in the early stage of uterine septum to treat it and reduce the pain brought to women by the disease. It is best for female friends to have regular physical examinations.
