It can reach about 70%, but the B-ultrasound images are not clear and it is very easy to misdiagnose. It is not possible to distinguish between complete and incomplete uterine septum.

2. Generally, the surgery should be performed within one week after the menstruation ends, and you should not have sexual intercourse before the surgery. It is best to perform a hysteroscopy before surgery to confirm the diagnosis. The diet after surgery should be light and should include foods that are easy to digest. If you have anemia, you should eat foods rich in iron.

2. After uterine septum surgery, you should pay attention to eating more liquid and semi-liquid foods to facilitate digestion. For example, you can choose lean meat or fresh fish to make soup, which can not only ensure nutrition but also increase appetite, and the patient will recover quickly.

3. The body's repair after surgery requires various nutrients, especially crude fiber foods.

4. Generally, you should wait half a year or a year after the operation before starting to prepare for pregnancy, so that the uterus can have enough time to recover its functions and provide a good environment for the development of the fetus.
