Abstract

Congenital uterine anomalies and acquired lesions of the uterus may be identified during an infertility evaluation. Uterine abnormalities have been associated with infertility, recurrent pregnancy loss, or poor reproductive outcomes. Congenital anomalies are more commonly associated with adverse reproductive outcomes, although the septate uterus may also be associated with infertility. Acquired uterine abnormalities that may affect fertility include leiomyomas, endometrial polyps, intrauterine adhesions, and adenomyosis. Evaluation and management strategies for uterine infertility are discussed in this chapter.
