Your research is good but I am not sure your work-up is complete and the diagnosis is correct at this time. You need a hysterosalpingogram and hysteroscopy/laparoscopy prior to consideration of surgical alternatives. This should be done by a specialist who is accustomed to treating congenital malformations. Your local gyn is not likely that person. Continue research and get other opinions before you do anything substantial.
