Most studies that I have read say that they have not found conclusive evidence that links a higher rate of infertility to people with MAs. This can be frustrating b/c at times it seems like us (who have MAs) do have more infertility struggles. There is a higher incidence of women with an MA also having Endometriosis though, which does cause infertility. Have you had a Laproscopy to check for Endo? I would recommend that as well as any other fertility tests that you may not have yet had. Best wishes to you!

Most people will tell you that BU alone should not cause infertility. That seems to be the general consensus. Just because your HSG shows you are BU, don't let the doc and radiologist fool you. There is almost no way to know for sure that you are BU from the HSG alone. I would strongly recommend you seek a firmer diagnosis (the best way being through a laproscopy and hysterscopy). A lap/hyst could also verify if you have any other problems like endo. I say this because I was misdiagnosed as BU by my HSG, as were many women here. Often they just use BU as a blanket term. Best of luck in finding good info. THese ladies here are a great source. 25, SU resected Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
