Question

What is a septate uterus and how does it affect fertility?

पर्याय

• A condition that only affects male fertility

• A uterus divided by a septum that impairs implantation and increases miscarriage risk

• A temporary condition that resolves spontaneously

• A uterus with normal anatomy and enhanced fertility

Answer 1

A septate uterus is a Structural/Anatomical cause of female infertility involving a fibrous or muscular septum dividing the uterine cavity. This congenital malformation impairs endometrial blood flow and embryo implantation, increasing miscarriage risk. Hysteroscopic septum resection can improve reproductive outcomes.
