As cicatrizes no útero são chamadas de aderências intrauterinas. Estes podem desenvolver-se após certos procedimentos como dilatação e curetagem (D&C), um procedimento em que o revestimento interno do útero é raspado. A curetagem é usada para induzir o aborto, remover restos placentários após o nascimento de uma criança ou perda de gravidez, ou para a remoção de miomas ou miomas uterinos. As aderências intrauterinas podem causar sangramento e infertilidade.

Sintomas

Sangramento vaginal anormal
Dor pélvica
Perda de gravidez recorrente

Tratamento

Você deve discutir seus sintomas com seu médico de atenção primária ou obstetra/ginecologista. Eles provavelmente realizarão mais testes, como um teste hormonal ou uma histeroscopia. As aderências podem ser removidas por meio de cirurgia, e esse tratamento pode ser seguido por terapia com estrogênio para reduzir a chance de retorno do tecido cicatricial.
