Thread: Titled Back Uterus

I've been told by my doctor that my uterus is tilted as well. It doesn't affect your ability to get pregnant, I finally understood why it's so hard for me to get tampons in, the doctor told me that it was hard to get the speculum in me for my exam because my uterus was tilted.

Nothing to worry about!

My doctor told me I had a tilted uterus to. I just had surgery to correct it because it was causing me a lot of pain. I was told that it could lessen your chance to become pregnant only if there are other problems like endometriosis. They tighten ligaments around the uterus to bring it to the right position, and after healing time, things should be more comfortable. They suggested that I have the surgery, but only because I was having painful periods. It also caused back problems, which hopefully will be mostly taken care of. But, if you are really worried, talk with him about the options there are. There are a few that can correct it without surgery I've heard, but they are less effective. So, just talk with him. He should be able to tell you more about corrective methods. If he doesn't (because it took me a few years of looking for a doctor that would help me with my pain) get a second opinion.

I have a tilted uterus. I have 3 happy healthy little boys. No problems conceiving or delivering. You will be fine.
