There are many cases of female infertility caused by uterine diseases, so can underdeveloped uterus lead to infertility? Let's take a look at what the experts from the Guangzhou Air Force Logistics Hospital have to say.
Infertility caused by an underdeveloped female uterus has seen many patients in recent years consulting online about common knowledge issues related to infertility. We now provide answers one by one to friends troubled by infertility and suggest that infertile patients do not become overly anxious. With the current update and development of medical technology, there are already good treatment methods for such diseases.
"A small uterus" is one of the main reasons for infertility patients seeking clinical help. Some gynecologists, based solely on internal examinations or ultrasound measurements, rashly diagnose patients as having a small uterus which is unfavorable for conception. Many female patients, because of these "diagnoses" made by doctors, bear heavy psychological burdens, believing that a small uterus means they cannot conceive, and some families even break up because of this.
A uterus smaller than normal is referred to in medicine as "uterine hypoplasia", commonly known as "small uterus". Such patients often experience scanty menstruation, amenorrhea, or menopause.
"Uterine hypoplasia" is mainly caused by insufficient endocrine function, especially ovarian dysfunction which often leads to abnormal secretion of estrogen and progesterone. The development of the uterus requires the joint action of these two hormones, so their secretion disorders will hinder the normal development of the uterus. Ovarian dysfunction not only causes underdevelopment of the uterus but also creates greater barriers to pregnancy. Patients with this condition often do not ovulate or have luteal phase defects, leading to female infertility.
Diagnosing "small uterus" should be done using scientific methods. Ultrasound measurements showing the length, width, and thickness of the uterus body below 5cm, 4cm, and 2cm respectively can diagnose "uterine hypoplasia". Professional "vaginal ultrasound" is more accurate than ordinary abdominal ultrasound. It should be noted that diagnoses should never be made lightly based on simple ultrasound measurements or even just gynecological internal examinations. Another method for measuring the size of the uterus is measuring its capacity; if the capacity is less than 5ml, it can be diagnosed as "uterine hypoplasia".
