Anyone heard of Ashermans Syndrome?

[NickyT75]

Just wondered if anyone has any knowledge of the above?

Its basically adhesions/scarring to the inside of the uterus which usually happens during a D&C and can cause infertility

It is apparently quite rare but research shows it is under diagnosed due to poor awareness of the condition

I had to have an ERPC after I lost my little girl last April to remove the placenta & suffered serious complications which meant I needed a blood transfusion to save my life

Ive been doing some research into whether this may be affecting my fertility as me & my husband have gotten pregnant easily on 2 occasions (both resulting in losses) but since the ERPC we've done everything possible to get pregnant without any success

Im seeing my doctor tomorrow to discuss my concerns & try to see if she'll refer me for a HSG to check for this condition

Hopefully I wont have it but if I do its treatable so just wanted to raise awareness of it by mentioning it on here

www.ashermans.org is the link if you'd like more info xx

Hello. I have struggled to recover from Ashermans from a D&C last year. I have had two operations to try and correct it. Thank you for your post to create awareness. I know your post was a long time ago - but what happened? What was the result of your condition and did you get pg?
