Asherman’s Syndrome, also known as intrauterine adhesions or uterine synechiae, is a rare condition characterized by the formation of scar tissue inside the uterus, often leading to infertility and menstrual abnormalities. At Aashakiran IVF, led by Dr. Asmita Mahla, we specialize in diagnosing and treating Asherman’s Syndrome, providing comprehensive care across our centers in Kharar, Amritsar, Ludhiana, and Bathinda. This article aims to provide insights into the causes, symptoms, and treatment options for Asherman’s Syndrome.
Understanding Asherman’s Syndrome
Asherman’s Syndrome occurs when trauma or injury to the uterine lining, typically as a result of uterine surgery, infection, or childbirth complications, leads to the formation of scar tissue. This scar tissue can cause the walls of the uterus to stick together, resulting in various reproductive health issues such as infertility, recurrent miscarriages, and menstrual abnormalities.
Symptoms of Asherman’s Syndrome
Symptoms of Asherman’s Syndrome may include:
- Absent or reduced menstrual flow
- Recurrent miscarriages
- Pelvic pain or cramping
- Infertility or difficulty conceiving
- Changes in menstrual cycle patterns
Diagnosis and Evaluation
Diagnosing Asherman’s Syndrome typically involves a combination of medical history review, pelvic examination, imaging studies such as ultrasound or hysterosalpingography (HSG), and minimally invasive procedures like hysteroscopy. A thorough evaluation is essential to determine the extent of scar tissue and guide treatment decisions.
Treatment Options
Treatment for Asherman’s Syndrome aims to remove the scar tissue and restore normal uterine anatomy and function. This may involve minimally invasive surgical procedures such as hysteroscopic adhesiolysis, where the scar tissue is gently removed using specialized instruments. Hormonal therapy or adjuvant treatments may also be recommended to promote healing and prevent recurrence of adhesions.
