Effects of a Double Womb (Uterus) and vagina on Pregnancy.

Did you know that some women are born with two vaginas and two uteruses? This rare condition, known as Uterine Didelphys, is fascinating and complex. In this video, we dive into what Uterine Didelphys is, how it is diagnosed, its implications for pregnancy, and the potential complications associated with it.
What is Uterine Didelphys?
Uterine Didelphys is a congenital abnormality where a woman is born with two separate uteruses and two vaginas. This condition occurs during fetal development when the two tubes that usually fuse to form a single uterus fail to merge properly.
How is Uterine Didelphys Diagnosed?
Diagnosis often occurs during routine pelvic exams, ultrasound, or MRI scans. Many women might not even realize they have this condition until a detailed medical examination, usually prompted by symptoms like irregular menstrual cycles or difficulties becoming pregnant.
How Does It Affect Pregnancy?
Pregnancy with Uterine Didelphys can be challenging. Women with this condition can conceive in one or both uteruses, which may lead to complications such as preterm labor or miscarriage. Each uterus has its own cervix, and in some cases, pregnancies can occur simultaneously in both wombs, which requires careful medical monitoring.
Potential Complications
Complications associated with Uterine Didelphys include:
- Increased risk of miscarriage
- Preterm birth
- Breech delivery
- Irregular menstruation
- Challenges with natural childbirth, often necessitating C-sections.
