Can I get pregnant with a uterine diverticulum?

The uterus is a woman's main reproductive organ. Women who are preparing for pregnancy need to pay special attention to the uterus during their pre-pregnancy physical examination. However, some women may have some health problems after examination, such as uterine diverticulum, which will make women with such diseases particularly worried when wanting to have a baby. So, is it possible to get pregnant with uterine diverticulum?

Uterine diverticulum is also called uterine scar rupture. It is often caused by myomectomy or cesarean section. It is one of the medium- and long-term complications of uterine surgery. If the uterine scar diverticulum is small, you can still get pregnant after a thorough examination and following the doctor's advice. However, there are certain risks in getting pregnant if you have a uterine diverticulum.

If a woman's uterine diverticulum is relatively large, it is not easy for her to get pregnant. If you are pregnant, especially in the late pregnancy as the baby grows and develops, the uterus will be stretched and it is easy to cause uterine rupture at the site of the scar diverticulum. If this happens, it will undoubtedly be very serious. Therefore, uterine diverticulum must be treated first to avoid some dangerous conditions during pregnancy, which will not only make treatment more difficult, but also cause great harm to health.

When a woman is planning to have a pregnancy and needs a pre-pregnancy check-up and is found to have a uterine diverticulum, regardless of its size, she should follow the doctor's instructions and not get pregnant blindly to reduce these serious risks during pregnancy.

After a follow-up examination one year later, if the condition is well recovered, you can consider pregnancy. If you get pregnant immediately, you may suffer from infertility, diverticular pregnancy, or even uterine rupture. There are many ways to treat diverticula at this stage, each with its own advantages. 1. If a patient with diverticulum is found, traditional treatment should be given for one year, and emergency contraception can be taken to repair the endometrium. 2. If traditional treatment fails, surgery can be used. Surgical treatment methods include transvaginal diverticulum repair, which has the advantage of less trauma, but limited exposure, high difficulty in actual operation, and a success rate of 60~70%. It can be repaired through laparoscopic surgery, which has the advantage of wide field of vision, very easy repair, and a success rate of over 70%, but the cost is high. It should be within 20,000. The trauma is greater than that of vaginal surgery. Another method is to repair the tumor by laparotomy, which has a success rate of over 90%, but it causes great trauma and is usually repaired while performing other surgeries. 3. The last one is to insert the Mirena IUD to block the menstrual period, but some patients are afraid of not having their periods and they are getting older, so they cannot accept it. Of course, any method must be tailored to the patient's specific situation.
