can a retroverted uterus cause miscarriages?
820145
I also have a retroverted uterus, and had pregnancy problems, I had great Drs, but they were making a mistake, they had been using the camera they insert to view the uterus etc. for any other problems, well turns out that does not give the best results, another Dr. I went to did a regular sonogram that showed I had other female issues, that had caused my problems. He stated it would take me longer than some women to get pregnant, but I did in time! I am not a doctor but my 1st thought is u should give yourself and your body a break, your 2nd pregnancy seems to soon, your not giving your body time to recoup! Also mental stress can make getting pregnant a problem all that stress effects our bodies. I would suggest u take good care of yourself, see your obgyn on a regular basis, as for the other health issues I am sure your Dr. can answer all questions. I bet u have been told u r able to have a baby, but it may not be the easiest, u will have to stay off your feet, meaning not alittle but almost thru the entire pregnancy! In bed feet up, even if it drives u crazy!! believe me it can get boring!! but after 2 miscarriages u know this is important. I dont know if u have to work or if u do, but u will need to be home I cant stress this enough, you will have to be in the bed when u become pregnant again!!!!! U will have no choice, its for your health and that of your unborn child, I pray that u get to have a baby, and I believe u will, but 1st take care of yourself, eat well, exercise, vitamins daily and see your Dr. often and ask every question u can think of, take notes and bring them to the dr. it helps me to do that, otherwise seems I just go blank and forget all I wanted to ask! Good luck with everything.

A period is the shedding of the wall of the utereus. If a woman was pregnant and her uterine wall shed, she would have a miscarriage. \n\nThere was a friend in high school who found out she was pregnant and then a few days later she miscarried. She said there was a " really really big" clump of blood.\n\nAlso when my sister miscarried, her bleeding was very painful.

Wow, that's a hard question! Lots of things can cause miscarriages. Probably the most common is a mistake in the DNA was incompatible with life. \n\nA physical injury could cause a miscarriage. Maternal illness could cause a miscarriage (such as thyroid disease.) Some drugs could cause one.\n\nStress could contribute to a miscarriage, but I don't think this is a major cause. Most often, espcially in the first trimester, a miscarriage happens because of miscoding in DNA, which is not the 'fault' of either parent. Just part of nature.

Bicornuate or bicornis uterus\n\nYou can do a search on "Bicorunate" and tons of stuff come up - I have included a few web sites below as sources\n\n What is a\nBicornuate Uterus?\n\nOverview\n\nA bicornuate uterus is a uterus that has two horns and a heart shape. The uterus has a wall inside and a partial split outside.\n\nA bicornuate uterus is the most common congenital uterine anomaly and can impact a woman's reproductive capabilities. Several studies show that women with a bicornuate uterus have about a 60% success rate in delivering a living child but have a higher risk of cervical incompetence.

It is entirely possible have missed and retained products of conception, in which case you will need another D&C.  Ask your doc to schedule an U/S as soon as possible to rule that out.  You may also have subinvoluted uterus - that is to say, an enlarged, still-bleeding uterus - which must be contracted medically using a drug like Methergine or similar.  Good luck and feel better.

The sit ups have nothing to with the fact that you are still bleeding.  You didn't mention how long you have been bleeding but if it has been for at least a week you may want to call the doc and let his nurse know so she can ask if this is normal for you.  The miscarriage also was not caused or related to the sit ups either.  When you have a miscarriage it means there was something wrong with the baby and that is natures way of taking care of it.

Most conditions which cause an enlarged uterus are fibroids.  These are not malignant over growth of uterine tissue.  There are other conditions, but they do not occur as often.

Did they tell you anything about the test results? Sometimes women who have repeated miscarriages like this have an abnormal clotting factor in their blood that causes the placenta to clot off early in pregnancy and results in miscarriage; in other cases it could be due to incompatibility in certain blood factors between mother and fetus. Sometimes they don't find a specific cause. From your question it suggests that you CAN carry a pregnancy (since you have a child and the last was lost so late and unrelated to anything with you)...so I wouldn't give up hope on this.  As for chromosomal...some people have what is called a "balanced translocation", which doesn't affect them but could cause genetic problems in their children and lead to miscarriages as you describe. The chances for a successful preganancy in that situation could be significantly lower than if it was a problem like the ones described previously. The testing would tell if you or your  partner has such a translocation. There are ways around that situation, too...but they would involve IVF, to ensure that any potential babies conceived did NOT carry the translocation.

Sometimes I regret and other times I dont. I have had mine tied for a year and there is no reversal for me due to having to have a hysterectomy. So now I just look on the bright side of the whole which is no more worrying about missed periods since I had a hysterectomy and no more worrying about getting pregnant since I had my tubes tied and have no uterus or cervix

An arcurate uterus is considered a normal variation of a uterus, instead of the fundus (the top) of the uterus being dome shaped it is indented slightly. It does not cause significant problems associated with fertility or miscarriages.  So yes, you can have a successful pregnancy with an arcurate uterus.

I suspect that he means a retroverted uterus, meaning that the uterus tends to hang down rather than tilting forward. This is very, very common, and has little clinical import in pregnancy. You can read more about it here\nhttp://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/001506.htm

gosh i hope your not thinking of getting on one? it also depends on how far along you are, but it can cause irritation to the fetus and strong banging can result in miscarriage

I feel as if I have to clear up some well-meaning incorrect information given to you.  It is not possible to have a normal menstrual period with a viable gestation occuring in the uterus. Sometimes bleeding can happen while pregnant, but it is not a period. Note the color of the blood.  If it is brownish, then it is "old blood" and can be resolved by resting and decreasing physical activity.  If it is red, then you need to seek the attention of a physician immediately.  Steps can be taken to prevent a miscarriage.

No. Talk to your gyn about reasons for your dysfunctional uterine bleeding.  The treatment options will depend on the underlying cause, but there are choices and you don't have to suffer.  You are losing too much blood and it needs to be checked.  Good luck.

Symptoms of a miscarriage include:\nVaginal bleeding that may be light or heavy, constant or irregular. Although bleeding is often the first sign of a miscarriage, first-trimester bleeding may also occur with a normal pregnancy. Bleeding with pain, however, is a sign that miscarriage is more likely.  \nPain. You may have pelvic cramps, abdominal pain, or a persistent, dull ache in your lower back. Pain may start a few hours to several days after bleeding has begun. \nBlood clots or grayish (fetal) tissue passing from the vagina.\nIt is not always easy to tell whether a miscarriage is taking place. A miscarriage often does not occur as a single event but as a chain of events over several days.
