My Feedback
Pelvic adhesions, especially in the womb, can potentially affect pregnancy chances in several ways:
Uterine adhesions
This condition is also known as Asherman’s syndrome.
Adhesions in the uterus can lead to:
1● Reduced uterine cavity size
2● Abnormal uterine shape
3● Difficulty implanting a fertilized egg
4● Increased risk of miscarriage
5● Chronic pelvic pain Adhesions can cause chronic pelvic pain, which may lead to:
♧ Difficulty conceiving due to pain during intercourse
♧ Increased stress, which can negatively impact fertility
6● Increased risk of ectopic pregnancy:
Adhesions can increase the risk of an ectopic pregnancy, where the fertilized egg implants outside the uterus.
7● IVF complications
♧ Adhesions can make IVF procedures more challenging and increase the risk of complications.
Bottomline
If you suspect adhesions are affecting your fertility, consult fertility specialists for proper evaluation and treatment.
They may recommend:
1. Laparoscopic surgery to remove adhesion
2. IVF or other assisted reproductive technologies
3. Pain management techniques
Remember, early diagnosis and treatment can improve pregnancy chances.
