Hello doctor! My wife is 8 weeks and 2 days pregnant but still has a normal menstrual cycle. My wife went to a hospital near home for a check-up and the ultrasound doctor said that my wife has a double uterus or a bicornuate uterus (each time the doctor said something different). Currently, the fetus is still developing normally, 17mm long and has a heart rate of 150. So I would like to ask the doctor: "Why do I still have a menstrual cycle while pregnant? Or not and does it affect the fetus? Thank you for your advice, doctor!

double uterus is a rare uterine malformation in women. Women with a double uterus can still get pregnant and give birth normally, but they are prone to serious complications during pregnancy, such as premature birth, stillbirth, difficult labor, miscarriage or even infertility.

Double uterus is an abnormal deformity of the female uterus. This condition adversely affects the development of the fetus, can cause premature birth, stillbirth or fetal malnutrition in the uterus. In addition, it also reduces natural pregnancy, even has a high risk of dangerous obstetric complications for both mother and baby.

double uterus is an abnormality of the uterus. Normally it is difficult to detect because there are no symptoms, however, during pregnancy, a double uterus reduces the ability to conceive naturally, greatly affecting the health of the pregnancy. In fact, a pregnant woman with a double uterus also increases the risk of dangerous obstetric complications for both mother and baby.

Women diagnosed with a bicornuate uterus or a septate uterus that affects fertility are often candidates for Strassman hysteroplasty.

Bicornuate uterus is a congenital malformation, quite common among the structural abnormalities of the uterus. Women with bicornuate uterus have many problems with fertility.

A hydatidiform uterus is a mild variant of the shape of the uterus and is one of the abnormalities of the Müllerian ducts. However, a hydatidiform uterus is unlikely to affect fertility.
