What are the dangers of uterine dysplasia?

The uterus is where life is conceived. Only when the uterus is healthy can you successfully become pregnant and give birth to a child. However, the uterus is also relatively fragile. Among women with sexual experience, the chance of uterine infection is several times higher. Clinically, it is found that many women suffer from uterine malformations and uterine hypoplasia. It caused great pain to the patients. So what are the dangers of uterine hypoplasia? Let’s take a look.

The hazards caused by uterine hypoplasia mainly include the following situations:

1. Menstrual abnormalities: Patients with congenital absence of uterus or primordial uterus have no menstruation. Patients with immature uterus may have no menstruation, or may have symptoms such as scanty menstruation, delayed menstruation, dysmenorrhea, and irregular menstruation; patients with double uterus or bicornuate uterus often have excessive menstrual flow and prolonged menstrual duration.

2. Infertility: Uterine hypoplasia, such as absence of uterus, primordial uterus, and immature uterus, is one of the main causes of infertility.

3. Pathological pregnancy: An abnormally developed uterus often causes miscarriage, premature birth or abnormal fetal position after pregnancy. Spontaneous uterine rupture may occur during pregnancy. If the fallopian tube of the rudimentary uterine horn is unobstructed, the fertilized egg can implant in the rudimentary horn of the uterus. However, due to the poor development of the uterine muscle layer, it often ruptures during pregnancy, and the symptoms are the same as those of ectopic pregnancy.

4. Pathology during and after delivery: The malformed uterus is often accompanied by myometrial hypoplasia. During delivery, abnormal labor force and difficulty in cervical dilation may lead to difficult labor or even uterine rupture. Vaginal delivery may result in retained placenta, postpartum hemorrhage, or postpartum infection. After a patient with double uterus becomes pregnant, the pregnant uterus grows and develops, and if the non-pregnant uterus is located in the rectouterine fossa, it may cause obstructive dystocia during delivery. Patients with double uterus, bicornuate uterus or septate uterus may experience bleeding after delivery due to the discharge of decidua from the non-pregnant side of the uterine cavity.
