What causes congenital unicornuate uterus?

The so-called congenital unicornuate uterus refers to a disease caused by incomplete development in the mother's body. It is particularly harmful to women and can easily lead to infertility, habitual miscarriage, and symptoms of premature birth after pregnancy. It also often causes abnormal menstruation, irregular menstrual blood flow, etc. Diagnosis and treatment should be carried out promptly.

1. Infertility:

Many people who have no uterus, a deformed uterus, or an immature uterus seek medical treatment for infertility.

2. Pathological pregnancy:

Complications are also very likely to occur during pregnancy, such as the fertilized egg implanting on the underdeveloped uterine wall or mediastinum, affecting the development of the embryo. These can lead to early miscarriage, habitual miscarriage, premature birth, etc.

3. Abnormal menstruation:

Those with a primordial uterus or no uterus generally present with primary amenorrhea. A young uterus may produce scant menstrual flow. In patients with double uterus, bicornuate uterus and duplicate uterus, menorrhagia or prolonged menstruation may occur due to the increase in endometrial area.

4. Pathology during and after delivery:

An abnormally developed uterus is often accompanied by uterine muscle hypoplasia, which can easily lead to dystocia, and spontaneous uterine rupture can usually be seen. Placental retention and postpartum uterine atony bleeding are common after delivery.
