Question 1

can you tell me about having cornual pregnancy?

Accepted Answer

Ectopic pregnancy: Cornual pregnancy falls under "ectopic pregnancy" "ectopic" meaning "out of the proper place". The proper  situation of a pregnany would be in the middle up high in the uterus. Ectopic places are the cervix, the fallopian tubes, the corners of the top of the uterus, where the uterus continues on into the fallopian tubes, and pregnancies outside the uterus/fallopian tubes altogether.

Question 2

i have had a cornual ectopic pregnancy 2 years ago with right falopian tube and wedge of cornual removed.  can a safe and successful pregnancy happen?

Accepted Answer

See details: Yes as long as your left side is normal and not affected by the previous surgery.  You are at a greater risk for another ectopic, therefore, once you become pregnant you should get checked right away  to confirm that the pregnancy is in the uterus.

Question 3

my hsg findings shows left tube opacified up to distal isthmal region while right is blocked at cornual region?

Accepted Answer

: Regardless of where in each tube there is obstruction, and no free flow of dye was detected,  consult your GYN physician for guidance, as "in vitro fertilization" may be your only alternative. Sometimes a "distal isthmal obstruction" can be removed surgically, but successful pregnancies are rare at age "40", and medication to enhance ovulation may be required.

Question 4

what are the reason for blocked tube specially at cornual end?

Accepted Answer

Possible infection: You don't say how you know the tube is blocked, but sometimes simple spasm can make the tubes appear to be blocked.  Uterine infections caused by bacteria like chlamydia can cause scarring and blockage.

Question 5

from hsg report

the left tube is not seen and no evidence of peritoneal spill of contrast on the left.
impression: left cornual occlusion.
interprete?

Accepted Answer

See below: They're saying that your left tube is blocked.  Make an appointment with your doctor to discuss options.

Question 6

sir, my fallopian tube has cornual angulation with fibrosis in laproscopy. what can i do?

Accepted Answer

If both sides are: blocked, In vitro is best option

Question 7

hi doctor i went for an hsg test on the 16 april 2014. ....my docs says my left tube is occluded at the cornual end.....what can we do?

Accepted Answer

Occluded Tube: Not a lot that can be done.  In the us, most docs have abandoned tubal corrective surgery as the rates for ivf are better than conceiving after the tube (s) has been repaired. Also, when the tube has been either operated on or previously damaged, there is an increased risk for an ectopic pregnancy. At 24 years old, i would just try to get pregnant naturally for at least a year.

Question 8

hello doc i m suffering from both  tube blocked  at cornual end  now plan for hysterolaproscopy so can  i do associated iui a t the same time?

Accepted Answer

IUI won't work: If both your tubes are really blocked at the cornual ends (where they join the uterus) the IUI won't work as the egg and sperm can't get together. If one or both tubes was in spasm and not truly blocked then you still have a chance. Talk to your doctor - it's probably best to wait to see how your tubes look at the time of surgery before doing iuis.

Question 9

i usually feel pain when i'm ovulating. this month my left lower abdomen is in pain for a week. my cornual ruptured in feb. should i be concerned?

Accepted Answer

If the pain is gone: It is unlikely that it is anything serious if the pain resolved spontaneously but it would be worth mentioning it to the doctor who cared for you in Feb.

Question 10

outside of fertility drugs and are there any ways to increase the chances of pregnancy?

Accepted Answer

Stay healthy: Healthy diet, limit caffeine and alcohol, avoid tobacco, moderate exercise, and staying healthy all support natural fertility. Herbs, otc drugs, diets, vitamins, supplements, and tricks to 'make you fertile' don't work and can be dangerous. Understanding when during the cycle you are best able to conceive, and using natural family planning methods also increase chances of success.
