Bicornuate Uterus
Hiya,
i’ve Recently been told by my GP that I have a bicornuate uterus (heart-shaped womb) and he has told me that, I can easily get pregnant but, will not be able to carry children. I’m only 18 and am so confused... any help?!

Hi hun
Nature's an amazing thing and doctors are not always right. I have an even rarer condition of a Unicornate Uterus which means I've been born with just half a womb. This means I'm high risk of miscarriage, very small baby and premature baby xx now they've only just discovered this condition 3 weeks ago after my fertility MRI. I have an 11 year old son who I carried full term and he was 8lb 12 ounce. No one then picked up on my mini womb and he was huge. Point I'm making is have faith. My half a womb carried a very large baby despite all the statistics saying I can't xxx be positive xx
hiya,
literally been told by so many! Recently had an internal scan and not only been told about the bicornuate also have a callapsing cyst! They told me that I’m off high risk of getting pregnant But, that I will not succeed In carrying due to the septum being in the middle which has basically given me 1 and 1/2 uterus‘. They’ve told me that it is possible to operate but, only after I have manages To go through with the pregnancy but, how am I supposed to have this operation after I’ve had a child when they have told me that I cannot possibly carry a child? I don’t want children right now as I’m only 18 but, I would like a little me running around at some point in my future... it has caused me so many more problems!

I’m sorry if my message is odd compared to how people write nowadays. It’s been many years since I’ve been on a baby chat forum. I’ve been busy bringing up my children but just today I spoke to someone and my bicornuate uterus came into the conversation. I wondered if women still worry about this issue and search the internet frantically for help the way I used to and I ended up on this site. I’m in no way negating the risks involved with this kind of diagnosis but I am an example of someone who has had no serious problem with it as well as a previous diagnosis of PCOS, which went on to clear up following an extremely strict, low carb diet (NOT during pregnancy) best wishes to you all xx
I myself have a nearly-fully septate bicornuate uterus, found by one highly perceptive NP doing my regular PAP. We confirmed it with a transvaginal ultrasound; the separation is so strong, it was suggested that I could theoretically carry one pregnancy on each side simultaneously
Knowing that we can't know helped me, oddly.
