How does Asherman’s syndrome affect pregnancy? In this article, we shall be discussing effects of Asherman’s syndrome on pregnancy, health factors related, as well as the natural remedy to overcome Asherman’s syndrome for good.

One of the negative effects of Asherman’s syndrome is that it creates less space in the uterus thereby limiting the space for foetal development.

Before we delve into the details, let’s help you understand the basics.

What is Asherman’s syndrome?

Asherman’s syndrome is an acquired condition where scar tissues (adhesion) form inside your uterus. The scar tissue can build up, reducing the amount of open space inside your uterus.

More so, this condition can cause pelvic pain and abnormal uterine bleeding and can lead to fertility issues. The complications of this syndrome are as a result of medical procedures or cancer treatments.

However, women with this syndrome may experience light or no periods, pelvic pain or infertility. This can be treated and treatment often helps relieve your symptoms.

Asherman’s syndrome is also known as intrauterine adhesions (IUA).

Health Factors Associated with Asherman’s Syndrome

Asherman’s syndrome is an acquired condition, which means that something usually happens that causes you to develop scar tissue. You can acquire Asherman’s syndrome in several ways, including;

• Having surgery on your uterus in the past, including operative hysteroscopy, complicated dilation and curettage (D&C), or cesarean section (c-section).
• Having a history of pelvic infections.
• Being treated for cancer

Patients with Asherman’s syndrome may present with amenorrhea (absence of menstruation) with or without severe dysmenorrhea (painful menstrual periods), oligomenorrhea, infertility, or recurrent miscarriages.

In addition, the syndrome occurs most frequently after repeated curettage for incomplete abortion, postpartum haemorrhage (24%), and elective abortion (17.5%).

Others less common etiologic factors for Asherman’s syndrome include:

• Myomectomy (a surgical procedure to remove uterine fibroids)
• Hysterotomy,
• Diagnostic curettage
• Cesarean section

Effects of Adhesions on Pregnancy

A normal uterine cavity and endometrial lining is necessary in order to conceive and maintain a healthy pregnancy.

Meanwhile, scar tissue within the uterine cavity can partially or completely obliterate the normal cavity and can interfere with conception, or increase the risk for pregnancy complications.

Nevertheless, getting pregnant while you have the condition is possible, but the adhesions in the walls of the uterus do not give room for proper foetal development.

‌Asherman’s syndrome also comes with a high risk of certain conditions during pregnancy, which includes:

Miscarriage

A miscarriage is a fairly common complication of early pregnancy, in which the developing embryo or foetus dies in the womb of natural causes, or due to exposure to substances.

The term miscarriage is used to describe this process when it happens during the first 20 weeks of pregnancy:

Signs and symptoms of a miscarriage might include:

• Vaginal spotting or bleeding
• Pain or cramping in your abdomen or lower back
• Fluid or tissue passing from your vagina

If you have passed foetal tissue from your vagina, place it in a clean container and bring it to your health care provider’s office or the hospital for analysis.

Stillbirth

A stillbirth is when a foetus dies after the mother’s 20th week of pregnancy. The baby may have died in the uterus weeks or hours before labour. Rarely, the baby may die during labour.

Similarly, it is also classified as either an early stillbirth, a late stillbirth, or a term stillbirth. Those types are determined by the number of weeks of pregnancy:

• Early stillbirth: The fetus dies between 20 and 27 weeks.
• Late stillbirth: The fetus dies between 28 and 36 weeks.
• Term stillbirth: The fetus dies the 37th week or after.

Placenta previa

Placenta previa occurs when the placenta covers the opening of the cervix during the last months of pregnancy. This condition can cause severe bleeding before or during labour.

In addition, the coverage and the bleeding also increases the risk of premature delivery.

The placenta develops in a pregnant person’s uterus during pregnancy. This sac-like organ provides the developing baby with food and oxygen, it also removes waste products from the baby’s blood.

Furthermore, during pregnancy the uterus stretches and grows. It’s normal for the placenta to be low in the uterus in early pregnancy.

As the pregnancy continues and the uterus stretches, the part of the uterine the placenta was stuck to moves, usually away from the cervical opening.

Specific symptoms may include:

• cramps or sharp pains
• a bleeding that starts, stops and begins again days or weeks later
• bleeding after intercourse
• bleeding during the second half of pregnancy

Placenta accreta

This is a condition whereby the placenta attaches itself too deeply into the uterine wall. This leads to a high-risk pregnancy. After birth, all or part of it remains attached, thereby causing too much bleeding.

Excessive bleeding

This can lead to pregnancy loss, infection, or could be a sign of an ectopic pregnancy. An ectopic pregnancy is a pregnancy that happens in your fallopian tube.

‌To avoid pregnancy compilations, it’s best you treat your Asherman’s syndrome before attempting to get pregnant.

However, Asherman’s syndrome is not a life-threatening condition but might expose you to recurrent miscarriages. Make sure you have regular doctor visits to have them monitor your pregnancy if you have Asherman syndrome. 

Meanwhile, there is a good news, involving a natural remedy to permanently cure Asherman’s syndrome.
