Uterus and ovaries - moving and changing position From: Cylla (anonymous@obgyn.net) Wed, 26 Jul 2000 11:56:49 -0500 (CDT) Messages sorted by: [ date ][ thread ][ subject ][ author ] Next message: Peggy: "Aromatase Inhibitors ?"

Montgomery, MD: "Re: Uterus and ovaries - moving and changing position" Reply: Cylla: "Re: Uterus and ovaries - moving and changing position - attn. Dr. Montgomary" I couldn't find an answer to these questions in the archives: 1. I know that a retroverted uterus is a variation of normal, but my uterus is sometimes anteverted and sometimes retroverted. There seems to be no connection to what day of cycle etc. Before my last pregnancy (I am 37 and have 3 kids) the uterus was always anteverted. But during the last few months I have had quite a few pelvic exams and ultrasounds (for other reasons), and as I said it's sometimes ante and sometimes retro. The doctor said not to worry, but did not explain anything. What could this mean? Maybe the uterus ligaments are torn or worn out? I had a D&C for a missed abortion 9 months ago, could this have caused the uterus to be mobile? I want to get pregnant again, would this be a problem? 2. My ovaries used to be at (what I understand) their correct position next to the sides of the uterus, but during the last few months they have been seen on ultrasounds ABOVE the uterus, one next to the other, even touching each other, in the middle of the belly, just under the navel. How could they have moved up there? Aren't they somehow fixed? And did the tubes move along with the ovaries to their new place? Would this position be a problem for getting pregnant or increase the risk of a tubal or ectopic pregnancy? Thank you for your response. Next message: Peggy: "Aromatase Inhibitors ?"
