Septate uterus and Hysteroscopic resection

Hi Ladies. I'd like to start a discussion about septate uterus. It seems there's a lot of textbook info online, but very little written about personal experience. I was diagnosed last year, 7 years after my only pregnancy which I miraculously carried to full term.

My first ultrasoun at 19 weeks failed to reveal a septum. At 28 weeks, they discovered she was breech. They attempted an ECV to turn her at 37 weeks, which was unsucessful. The doctor then forced me into a scheduled c-section for 39 weeks. However I went into labour naturally only a few short hours before the c-section and gave birth vaginal footling breech (feet first). She is a healthy almost 8 year old now.

In 2004 we ttc again for 2 years with no success. The relationship broke down and my current partner and I have been ttc for 4 1/2 years. He has male factor issues, and I have had a lot of cervical pain for years. An ultrasound in 2010 diagnosed a septate uterus. I will start seeing a gyno next week to find out the next step, and see if they recommend a hysteroscopic resection to remove the septum. Undoubtedly lots of tests first.

So I'd like to hear from other ladies who have a septate uterus (or bicornate, unicornate, etc). Did you have the surgery, and if so what was it like? Were you able to conceive afterwards?

Thanks :)

I have been diagnosed with a subserous fibroids on the uterine wall plus having a cyst on the right overy. Currently waiting to see a specialist would prefer to have hysterscopic resection rather than have a hysterectomy but will advise you of what they advise on my options Im 38 years of age, 1 child but I have had numerous menstruation problems since my child was born 14 years ago. Happy to find out what has been causing all these problems for the last couple of years has the pain i.e sore back, bloating, swelling, looking pregnant when youre not, pain in the pelvic area all the time during menstruation at the moment it is been pressing on the nerves on the spine and the pain is terrible, but the best thing that my GP has advised is to take it easy, such great words of wisdom!!
