Risks of unicornuate uterus pregnancy

The uterus is an important reproductive organ in the female body that nurtures life, so the uterus has special significance for all women. The problem of unicornuate uterus is a type of uterine malformation. Compared with normal women, the chance of pregnancy of patients with unicornuate uterus is greatly reduced, but pregnancy is still possible. At the same time, it is dangerous for patients with unicornuate uterus to become pregnant. Next, we will explain to you the dangers of pregnancy with unicornuate uterus.

A unicornuate uterus is most dangerous around 10 weeks of pregnancy, mainly due to the narrow uterine cavity, which can easily lead to early miscarriage of the fetus. A unicornuate uterus poses many risks to women of childbearing age, and after successful conception, pregnancy complications may occur, affecting the normal development of the embryo. These adverse factors may lead to early miscarriage of the fetus or frequent habitual miscarriage.

Furthermore, a unicornuate uterus can cause women to have too little menstrual blood, leading to toxin accumulation and normal menstrual disorders, which may in turn lead to more gynecological diseases. In addition, a unicornuate uterus is a single ovary that ovulates, so the chance of conception is already very low. Therefore, women with a unicornuate uterus must prepare for pregnancy at a reasonable age to avoid the decline in egg quality as they age, which would make conception particularly difficult. In addition, unicornuate women are prone to uterine rupture during delivery, so if you find that the delivery process is too long, you must change the delivery method in time.
