Bicornuate uterus

Detailed Answer:
Thank you for contacting HCM with your health care concerns

I am so sorry to hear that you lost your last child due to premature labor. You discovered since then that you have a bicornuate uterus. This may impact your next pregnancy. Once you become pregnant you will be classified as high risk. You will be monitored closely. You can still have a normal pregnancy and deliver a healthy child but you will need some extra TLC.

I hope I answered your question. Please contact us again if you have any additional questions
