A member asked:
Had uterine perforation but the dr is not sure enough to treat?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Observation: Most uterine perforations will happen through the fundus or thicker muscular top of the womb. This area tends to heal well with minimal bleeding. Observation is appropriate as long as the patient's blood count is normal and no signs of infection are present.
