I have a arcuate uterus - retroverted and deviated to the left, will this make it difficult for me to carry a baby to term? i am starting ivf soon.

Not usually: Your IVF doctor will be the best person to answer this question as they will be aware of your specific case. In general an arcuate uterus or a retroverted uterus does not decrease pregnancy success
