What are the treatments for uterine septum?

Many people don’t know what uterine septum is? In fact, this is a manifestation of abnormal uterine development in women. Women with uterine septum are prone to menstruation disorders and secondary anemia. They may secrete a lot of leucorrhea. The probability of infertility in such women is also very high. So what are the methods to treat this disease?

First, disease treatment

1. The hysteroscopic cold scissors separation method for uterine septum separation avoids the disadvantage of heavy bleeding in traditional surgery. It uses special technology, with less bleeding during and after the operation, less trauma, shorter recovery time, and less adhesion formation. In particular, the cold scissors protect the uterus and fertility capacity to the greatest extent and do not affect natural conception after surgery. The uterine cavity morphology returned to normal by more than 90%. The success rate of successful delivery after pregnancy is over 85%. Effective anti-adhesion methods are taken after hysteroseptum resection to prevent the occurrence of postoperative adhesions.

2. Traditional methods of treating uterine septum will leave scars on the uterus and abdominal wall, causing great trauma and a long recovery time, and may even cause uterine adhesions, which will have a certain impact on future pregnancies. In addition, contraception will require several years before pregnancy, and most will require a cesarean section.

3. The best treatment measure is to use cold instruments and plasma electroneedle to cut the mediastinum under hysteroscopy, rather than using an electric cutting ring to remove the mediastinum, which will cause scar contracture and will not help expand the uterine cavity. It is safer and more accurate to do it under laparoscopic monitoring, and a biological anti-adhesive membrane should be inserted after the operation. Also, for a larger mediastinum, it is not required to be repaired in one operation and multiple surgeries may be required. However, it is important to avoid "overcorrection" as it will cause excessive scarring of the fundus of the uterus, which will in turn affect conception.

Second, pay attention to diet

After uterine septum surgery, the patient should eat more liquid or semi-liquid foods to facilitate digestion, such as lotus root powder, orange juice, etc., or 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. Don't eat too early. Generally, you should start drinking a small amount of water after passing gas from the anus. If there is no discomfort, you can eat liquid food, such as rice soup, vegetable soup, etc., and then gradually transition to soft food and ordinary food.

Most people tend to eat a high-protein, high-calorie diet and ignore the intake of vitamins. However, the body's repair requires a variety of nutrients, especially crude fiber foods. For the elderly and weak, they should eat more liquid or semi-liquid food to facilitate digestion, such as lotus root powder, orange juice, etc., or 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. If the patient's nutritional status is poor and the general diet cannot meet the nutritional needs, some high-energy complete nutrient preparations can be taken orally.

Third, postoperative care

1. In order to recover quickly after uterine septum surgery, it is not advisable to eat too early. For patients undergoing non-gastrointestinal surgery, patients should generally eat nutritious and easily digestible food within 6 hours after surgery.

2. After uterine septum surgery, you should pay attention to eating more liquid and semi-liquid foods to facilitate digestion, such as lotus root powder, orange juice, etc., or 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. In daily life, most people tend to eat a high-protein, high-calorie diet and ignore the intake of vitamins. However, the body's repair requires a variety of nutrients, especially crude fiber foods.
