Anomalies in the development of the uterus

The uterus is a hollow muscular organ that is located in a small pelvis. If the uterus is normal, then its size is no more than 7-9 cm and it is pear-shaped. The body of the uterus in the lower part passes into the cervix, in the bottom of the uterus( part of the uterus under the upper arch) are the orifices of the fallopian tubes, the areas next to them are called the horns of the uterus. In some cases, due to disturbed embryonic development, the uterus is formed incorrectly. In this regard, there are questions, what are the deviations in the development of the uterus? Is it possible to become pregnant with abnormalities of the uterus? The risk of termination of pregnancy depends on the personal characteristics of a person - the severity and type of vice, the place of introduction of the fetal egg.

The uterine saddle is the most common abnormality in the structure of the uterus. The bottom of the uterus in this case is pushed inwards, not convex. In this case, the uterus in the transverse direction is slightly widened, the horns of the uterus are poorly expressed. With minor changes in the shape of the uterus, the child can be borne, but with a strongly pressed uterine fundus or with additional partitions, problems usually arise, and the fetal egg can not attach to the walls of the uterus, as a result of which placental abruption can occur. If the fetal egg is attached to the wall of the uterus, then an additional septum can cause some problems. The septum consists of a connective tissue, therefore it does not have the necessary number of blood vessels that could supply the embryo with food, and the lack of nutrition entails miscarriage. With an intrauterine septum, the difficulty of fetal movement and isthmic-cervical insufficiency are often combined.

In the two-legged uterus, there are two cavities that are connected in the center of the uterus or near the cervix( in the first case, the incomplete shape, in the second, a full two-parted shape).Sometimes, with the double-breasted uterus, there are violations of reproductive function, namely severe pain and bleeding, dysmenorrhea, miscarriages and infertility. In other cases, the conception of the child is not difficult, there are cases of independent births( everything depends on the individuality of the pregnant woman).

With total separation, two separate cavities are formed, which converge at the very bottom, resulting in problems - first the threat of miscarriage, the threat of premature birth, then the weakness of labor until the bleeding is discovered.

The dwarf uterus can cause other complications of pregnancy, for example, squeezing a child, low placentation, improper presentation of the fetus, fetoplacental insufficiency. Nevertheless, there are cases when pregnant women with such a womb not only safely nurtured a child, but also gave birth naturally.

It happens that the uterus is divided into two parts, that is, in the body of a woman, two uterus, often two vaginas, which are separated by a septum and two necks. In this case, the uterus does not intersect with each other, since each has a connection with its ovary. In this case, both uterus can be full, and can be one rudimentary, and the other is functioning. Doubling the uterus proceeds without symptoms, except for partial vaginal aplasia, this is when the menstrual blood from the same womb accumulates inside, because it can not exit. The birth of a child in this case is possible, but most often it is difficult to conceive a child. Most often, the uterus becomes pregnant separately, at the same time it is rare. Pregnant in this case is constantly under the supervision of a doctor, since the risk of premature birth is high.

Hypoplasia of the uterus( infantile or nursery uterus) is characterized by small dimensions. The cause of this anomaly may be hormonal disorders, polycystic or ovarian dysfunction, a sharp loss of body weight, chromosomal breakage or hereditary diseases. For example, with a lack of hormones, normal form of the ovaries and uterus, unexplained hypoplasia will help hormonal therapy.

Most abnormalities of the uterus are treated, as a result, you can without any problems to give birth to a child. It will only be necessary to constantly observe and conduct a caesarean section on time. Many women do not even know about the abnormalities of the uterus, nevertheless, bear and safely give birth to children.
