Bicornuate
Bicornuate refers to a specific type of uterine anomaly where the uterus has two distinct horns, resembling a heart shape. This condition occurs during fetal development when the Müllerian ducts fail to fuse completely. Women with a bicornuate uterus may experience complications during pregnancy, such as an increased risk of miscarriage or preterm birth.
Diagnosis of a bicornuate uterus is typically made through imaging techniques like ultrasound or MRI. Treatment options may vary depending on the individual's symptoms and reproductive goals, but surgical intervention can sometimes help improve pregnancy outcomes by correcting the uterine shape.
