A uterine septum can cause recurrent miscarriages and fertility issues and may be missed without a skilled pelvic ultrasound.

“And you know what? Let me tell you, I had a patient with a uterine septum. Do you know what that is? when the uterine cavity is actually divided in two because of this septum that was supposed to be absorbed, you know, but it never did. Unless you do a pelvic ultrasound and unless you're a good ultrasographer, you will miss this septum. And these are patients who have recurrent miscarriages. They don't get pregnant.”
