There are several types of uterine infertility
HAO YUN WO · 2022
The uterus plays the most important role in reproductive physiology and reproductive endocrine function, and the growth and development of the uterus is closely related to menstruation and reproductive function. There are many causes of abnormal uterine infertility, mainly abnormal uterine development and uterine lesions. So, what are the causes of uterine infertility in women?
Eight kinds of uterine infertility
1. Uterine dysplasia
Uterine dysplasia, also known as naïve uterus, generally refers to the uterus is still smaller than normal after puberty. A simple small uterus is not necessarily the direct cause of infertility, and if the ovaries are stunted at the same time, it is the direct cause of infertility.
2. Uterine malformations
Whether uterine malformations affect fertility depends on the type and extent of the malformations. Most of these patients do not have obvious self-conscious symptoms, but due to the influence of the implantation of fertilized eggs, they often cause infertility. Even if you are pregnant, because the uterine cavity cannot be enlarged, it is easy to miscarry and premature birth.
3. Abnormal uterine position
The normal uterine position is forward-leaning, with the uterine body slightly forward and the cervix facing backwards downwards. After sexual intercourse, because the semen accumulates in the posterior dome of the vagina, the downward cervix is easy to soak in the semen, which is conducive to the upstream movement of sperm. However, if the uterus is backward and flexed, the cervix is upturned, and it is not easy to soak in semen to affect conception. Of course, excessive uterine tilt forward flexion is not conducive to pregnancy.
4. Endometritis
When there are inflammatory changes in the endometrium, the lining does not provide enough nutrition, and the inflammatory exudate also has the effect of killing sperm, causing infertility. Symptoms include increased vaginal discharge, irregular uterine bleeding, and lumbar abdominal distension, often during menstruation.
5. Uterine fibroids
Uterine fibroids are more common tumors in women, divided into intermuscular fibroids, subserous and submucosal fibroids, fibroids affect the degree of conception related to the location, size and number of fibroids.
6. Endometrial polyps
Endometrial polyps are another type of endometritis. As endometrial polyps grow, endometrial polyps can fill the uterine cavity, preventing sperm and egg retention and implantation, causing infertility.
7. Uterine adhesions
Adhesions caused by trauma-secondary infections in the uterine cavity, isthmus, and cervical canal, such as: injurious curettage, specific infections (such as tuberculosis, schistosomiasis, amoeba and actinomycosis, etc.), etc., often occur clinically amenorrhea, menorrhagia and cause infertility.
8. Endometrial insufficiency
Endometrial insufficiency can be divided into endometrial atrophy, abnormal endometrial hyperplasia, and luteal phase membrane insufficiency.
The harm of uterine infertility is large and the treatment is complicated, so it is particularly important to prevent uterine infertility.
Prevention of uterine infertility
1. Pay attention to prenatal examination
Regular prenatal examinations are an important guarantee for the safety of mothers and children, otherwise they may lead to serious consequences such as obstructed childbirth and even uterine rupture.
2. Avoid unclean sex
In sexual life, it is not hygienic, and it is easy for bacteria to enter the uterine cavity through the vagina, causing endometrial infection. In addition, the stimulation of the cervix by men's foreskin scale is also one of the factors that cause cervical cancer in women.
3. Reduce the number of abortions
Young women repeatedly have artificial abortions, and each miscarriage will thin the endometrium, and will also cause pelvic inflammatory disease, blocked fallopian tubes, etc., and in severe cases, it will also lead to infertility. Repeated abortions over a short period of time are more damaging to the uterus. Private miscarriage can also easily lead to uterine breakage and secondary infection.
