What does double uterus in women mean? What is the probability of pregnancy for women with dual uterus
A few female friends have been diagnosed with double uterus, and women with double uterus are particularly prone to pregnancy. So, what is double uterus? Experts point out that in women, the lateral accessory mesonephric ducts are completely non fused, developing into two uteruses and two cervix, and the vagina is completely separated. The phenomenon of a single fallopian tube and ovary on each side of the uterus is called double uterus.
Patients with double uterus generally have no conscious symptoms and are usually discovered by chance during induced abortion, prenatal examination, or even delivery. During the early stages of induced abortion in patients with dual uterus, the possibility of accidentally scraping the non pregnant side of the uterus is high. If the abortion fails and the embryo is missed, the uterus will continue to develop and expand. Generally, patients with this disease have a higher rate of abnormal fetal position in the third trimester of pregnancy compared to normal individuals. During delivery, the non pregnant side of the uterus is likely to hinder the decline of the embryonic presentation, and uterine contractions are also more common. Therefore, patients with dual uterus have a higher cesarean section rate. The symptoms of ectopic pregnancy may also occur in patients with dual uterus, which means that after fertilization of eggs at different stages, they are implanted in two uteruses, with one fetus on each side of the uterus and not twins.
Reminder: Women with dual uterus have a high risk of pregnancy and a high rate of contraceptive failure, so they choose to undergo ligation surgery for contraception when doing good deeds. To prevent excessive miscarriage from affecting health.
