Adhesions Due To Fibroid Surgery

In our article yesterday about Swollen Legs During Menstruation, we announced that anyone that has any pressing health challenge that wants us to talk about should send it. We actually received some and one of them is what we are treating today. See the capture of the original e-mail she sent (e-mail address blocked for privacy sake)…see below

The fellow has actually undergone fibroid surgery 3 times and adhesions set in as a a result of that. Today, we will be discussing what intrauterine adhesions are, what causes them and what you can do to overcome them once and for all to regain your fertility.

Intrauterine adhesions/scarring or synechiae, is an acquired uterine condition, characterized by the formation of adhesions (scar tissue) inside the uterus and/or the cervix. In many cases, the front and back walls of the uterus stick to one another. In other cases, adhesions only occur in a small portion of the uterus. The extent of the adhesions defines whether the case is mild, moderate, or severe. The adhesions can be thin or thick, spotty in location, or confluent.

What Actually Are Intrauterine Adhesions?

The inside of the uterus is like a pocket with the front and back walls flat against each other. The pocket (i.e. uterus) is lined with tissue called endometrium. During menstruation, the superficial (topmost) layer of the endometrium is shed.

When a woman becomes pregnant, the embryo implants in the endometrium. Injury (due to surgery) to and/or infection of the endometrium may damage the uterine lining and cause formation of adhesions (scar tissue) between the inner walls of the uterus.

Asherman Syndrome is the term used to describe adhesions inside the uterus. The scarring can be mild with thin stretchy bands of scar tissue or more severe with formation of thick bands. In the most severe cases, partial or total destruction of the inside of the uterus can occur.

Causes of Asherman Syndrome

The most common cause of intrauterine adhesions is injury following a surgical procedure involving the cavity of the uterus such as in fibroid surgeries, D&C and co.

Dilatation and curettage (D&C) is a common outpatient surgical procedure during which the cervix (neck of the uterus) is opened and the tissue contents of the uterus are emptied.
