A member asked:
Can a bicornuate uterus be a cause of dysmenorrhea? i've always had severe cramps, got checked out & the only thing they found was bicornuate uterus.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possibly: A bicornuate uterus, is a partially split uterus that has formed in the shape of a heart, with two “horns” or areas at the top of the uterus. Like any abnormality in the shape of the uterus, bicornuate uterus can cause dysmenorrhea. More importantly, bicornuate uterus can cause recurrent pregnancy loss, preterm delivery, or fetal growth retardation, but successful term pregnancy is possible.
