Hysterectomy for tilted uterus

Common Questions and Answers about Hysterectomy for tilted uterus

hysterectomy

Avatar f tn I want to say the laproscopy was for the uterus right? Just want to be clear. If the uterus is tilted alone I do not believe they will remove it for that alone. Also based on the symptoms, it seems that pressure causes this bleeding. Did the scope go into the uterus? Also how much bleeding? A little? Are you soaking up pads (like 1 every 1-2 hrs)? Is it clotted?
Avatar n tn I really think that it has something to do with the ligaments/muscles holding up the uterus that has become out of whack to cause your tilted uterus to turn like this. It could be that the pelvic muscles/ligaments have prolapsed in the posterior, causing your bowels to become prolapsed as well, tugging down on the back side of your uterus and rotating it.
Avatar f tn Welcome aboard, I was diagnosed with possible Adenomyosis myself over a year ago. My symptoms never went along with the expected symptoms for Adenomyosis. I didn't have pain during periods or prolonged bleeding. In fact, when I was diagnosed, my AF had been shorter and lighter than normal. I also have a tilted uterus so that doesn't make anything easier. But I wouldn't get a hysterectomy and I'd seek advice from an RE as the poster above said.
Avatar f tn I have a titled uterus! It's nothing bad, every women's uterus is shaped and tilted different and my gyni told me that's just how mine is. My mom's is completely upside down lol.
Avatar n tn A hysterectomy is a very serious , painful operation with the possibilty of very troublesome life time side effects..Only as a last resort should anyone get a hysterectomy. Your age matters too, the younger you are the less likely you will find a dr to perform the procedure. I think you do need to see your gyn and ask about possibilites to control menstural pain. there is a wide variety of meds..stay away from narcotics if you can.
Avatar n tn I am 57, just into menopause, have a uterus full of "too many fibroids to count" totalling a diameter of 17cm. They all say that's huge; don't I know it! I have looked and felt about 7 or 8 months pregnant for over 20 years, despite never having been pregnant.

Avatar f tn I went for my 12 weeks scan and was told that my baby is actually 9weeks and 5 days and that I have a tilted uterus. I asked if having a tilted uterus is a problem and the sonographer said it will probably naturally come forward, has anyone had the same and did yours move forward during your pregnancy?
Avatar f tn I have a tilted uterus as well but I've never heard anything about miscarry or anything hopefully not preterm labor.
Avatar f tn How many of you ladies have a uterus that is not only tilted back a little but off center to one side or the other? My uterus seems to be more on the left than anything and that's the side I have all my round ligament pains for the most part and where I feel all my twitches and such. And if you did have an off center uterus did it seem to become more centered by the time you're really showing?
Avatar f tn My mother in law had a tilted uterus through all three of her pregnancies and still gave natural births. We were just talking about it the other day since I feel like my baby is in my back. She said it was lots of pressure on her back towards the end of her pregnancies but you'll have that either way.
Avatar f tn My OB casually mentioned to me today that I have a tilted uterus. She acted as if it was not a big deal and quickly changed the topic. Just wondering if any of you girls have this too?
Avatar n tn I went for my first ultrasound yesterday and the doctor told me I have a tilted uterus has anyone else experienced this??
1684717 tn?1305354618 A tilted uterus won't affect you getting pregnant is what I was told. I didn't know I was pg until I was already pg and it was hard to get the baby's heartbeat. Did they say if affected your being able to get pregnant?
316015 tn?1216733431 She needs to contact the patient rep at the hospital. As for the tilted uterus...my mom has one and mine is very slightly. Mine has never caused issues other than it makes it a bit more difficult to find my cervix. My moms...when she was pregnant with my bro she went about 6 months not showing at ALL then one night I guess my bro moved and it tipped the uterus forward she went from not looking pregnant to looking 9 mos pregnant.
Avatar f tn I have one too, I was told that your uterus moves throughout life so it can be different the next time you go in and usually it corrects itself :) no worries everything will be fine.
Avatar f tn Yes, a tilted uterus simply means that the fundus (the top of the uterus) is pointed posteriorly (to your back) as opposed to anteriorly (toward your front) is has no bearing on your fertility. If you end up getting pregnant, the uterus usually corrects it's position late in the first trimester, and rarely causes any complications.
Avatar n tn Someone just posted on here about bleeding at exams....just about everytime I have a pap smear I bleed too. Not sure why....the doctor never says anything but " Oh your cervix decided to bleed a little"....she also told me I have a tilted uterus??? Does anyone know what that means and how that will effect me ? Anyone had similar problems?
Avatar n tn Will having a tilted uterus make it harder to feel the baby move? I'm 18 weeks and I haven't felt anything yet. My bff felt hers move at 16 weeks and she's 22 now and can feel it from the outside. I've been scared from the beginning that something is gonna happen but I think it's only natural to be a little paranoid. I have an ultrasound in 2 weeks so I guess I'll find out then but what do you guys think?
Avatar n tn I also have a tilted uterus. Would this hinder our chances of conceiving?
Avatar f tn I had my first Dr's appointment today and Dr said my uterus was tilted back . I got scared but he assured me it was normal .its either facing forward or tilted back .anyone else ?
