bicornuate or septate uterus?From: anonymous (anonymous@obgyn.net)Sun, 29 Sep 2002 17:52:00 -0500 (CDT)
I am currently 13.5 weeks pregnant. I lost my first pregnancy at 8 weeks in February, and at that time I was diagnosed with a bicornuate uterus. This diagnosis was done with a transvaginal ultrasound. I have done an extensive amount of research into uterine anomalies. I understand that women with bicornuate uteri have an increased risk of loss, PTL and breech. I have also read several times that it is almost impossible to correctly tell the difference between a bicornuate and septate uterus by ultrasound. Is this true? Could I possibly have a septate uterus? Is one "worse" than the other? I have read that septate uteri have a higher risk of loss than bicornuate. I would just like to know if it is possible to tell the difference between the two on a t-v ultrasound. Thank you. LD.
