Posted on Wed, 6 Jan 2016
Question: Hi there. 5 years ago I lost my son at 6 months pregnant. There wasn't any answers to it. Later on I found out I had a bicornuate uterus. I'm now about to start trying again but I'm so scared. I couldn't go through that pain and suffering again. I just need to no what would happen once I get pregnant or what the chances are of miscarrying again

Brief Answer:
Bicornuate uterus

Detailed Answer:
Thank you for contacting HCM with your health care concerns

I am so sorry to hear that you lost your last child due to premature labor. You discovered since then that you have a bicornuate uterus. This may impact your next pregnancy. Once you become pregnant you will be classified as high risk. You will be monitored closely. You can still have a normal pregnancy and deliver a healthy child but you will need some extra TLC.

I hope I answered your question. Please contact us again if you have any additional questions
