Postabortal Retained Intra-uterine Fetal Bone as a Cause of Heavy menstrual bleeding and Secondary Infertility
Journal Title: Gujarat Medical Journal - Year 2019, Vol 74, Issue 1
Abstract
Most normal couples achieve a pregnancy within 12 months of trying to get pregnant. Failure to do so after one year may be defined arbitrarily as subfertility, which affects 10-15% of cohabiting couples. Most cases seen in india are of a secondary form. Amongst the many recognized causes of secondary infertility are complications of a preceding pregnancy which is rare. We described a rare cause of secondary infertility due to prolonged retention of intrauterine fetal bone after MTP done for lactational amenorrhea. Most patients complain of dysmenorrhea, dysfunctional uterine bleeding, pelvic pain, dyspsreunia, vaginal discharge or spontaneous passage of fetal bones . Cases are diagnosed by ultrasound examination, hysterosalpingography and hysteroscopy.
