SEPTUM IN GESTATIONAL SAC

[Guest guest]

Has anyone ever heard of a septum being WITHIN the gestational sac

not necessarily caused by an abnormally shaped uterus? Doctor just

gave me that news, but said the " septum " may disappear on next u/s IF

it had been a twin. Pregnancy is going along nicely after bleeding

early---almost 12 weeks. It seems like I have a NEW problem each

time I go----but, so far, the others have resolved themselves.

Help! I have look everywhere!!! Thanks!

I am sorry I don't read the board much anymore so I am not familiar

with your history. However, I have encountered something similar to

your current situation

At my 8 week appt, my OB noticed what she thought was a " septum " in

the sac. She also considered it might vanish with the next US -

thinking it was a vanishing twin. When I saw it on the US, it looked

like a band dividing the sac in half

However when I went to see the Peri, he said it was some sort of

uterine scar tissue that they see from time to time (the term sounded

like sinichia??). He said it would stetch itself out and go away on

its own without causing any problems.

Low and behold by 14 weeks it was gone. I will get the spelling from

him when I see him again on Thursday. When I did a search of it on

the internet it seemed fairly common. I will post again to you when

I find the spelling.

Please feel free to email me offline as I rarely read the board much

anymore.
