Elaine,

I got my records recently too and my husband has a medical dictionary so I could look up a few things. From what I have read,

>1) Can anyone tell me what an anteverted uterus means?

Anteverted means = tipped, my file said that I have an Anteverted uterus as well. I do not know, however, if that is a bad thing or good. My file and the dictionary didn't say.

They could very well be the cause of addtional pain, unfortunately, I am at work right now and I can not get the dictionary to find out what they mean.

In my opinion, yes that would be a cause for more pain. Of course, that is just my opinion. I hope I helped.
