TTC after 35

tilted uterus ***prev preg mentioned***

 I discovered I had a tilted uterus with my first pregnancy and I am pretty certain the tilt is worse now. Does anyone know how much can a tilted uterus inhibit fertility? I'm going to make an appt for the OB/GYN in a week or so (after I get my new insurance) to get this checked out but I was hoping to get some insight. Thanks in advance.

  • I have a tilted uterus too. I think that it is pretty common and doesn't inhibit fertility.

  • Check out maya abdominal massage! Google Arvigo maya massage and read about it. I went to a massage therapist trained in it and she taught me how to do it yourself (basically you use your fingertips and drag down pushing as you exhale, from your chest bone bottom to your belly button. A few angles. Then drag upwards towards your belly button from the top of your pelvic bone. And during your luteal phase you avoid the lower ab section. This description isn't great so it's best if you find someone to show you.

    It has many benefits including fixing the uterus position and cleaning out the stagnancies that could cause painful periods and clumps/clots or brown period. Also it strengthens the ligaments that hold the uterus in place so it's great to do pre-regnant and also after the first trimester.

    I've been doing it 2 months and my last period was completely pain free and it was bright cherry pinkish red blood. Looked so healthy. She also told me my uterus was tilted so it was resting on the Punic bone. She showed me how to feel it.

    It cost a lot for the visit and wasn't included by insurance but you do it to ourself after that.

    I've been talking about it a lot recently and posted about it here. It's so cool and so easy to do and very powerful.
    TTC#1 since Aug 2013, I'm 37, DH 41.  
    Maya Arvigo Abdominal massage (daily self care), plus TTC meditations.
    I'm very sensitive to diet (gluten, avoid processed foods) and environment. Have a history of inflammation and tendinitis before going off gluten in 2009.  
    July 2014 - RE Visit #1: Eggs look good, Endometrioma on R ovary, HSG showed blocked R tube close to ovary. DH SA normal 
    DX: Endometriosis probably the IF cause and gunking up tubes.  Since egg reserve is high, RE says I can wait a couple months and then get laproscopic surgery to remove endo & clear tube.  If that doesn't help then move to IVF. 
    Dec 2014 - Saw new RE - does not recommend surgery on tube as it isn't likely to help.  Doubts I have endometriosis.  My endometrioma shrunk to neglible size (yay!) 
    Seriously considering IVF in March/April

  • @Radiantly Thanks! I will definitely look into it. I just scheduled an OB/GYN appt so hopefully the NP can give me some more insight into if this is what's causing me discomfort.
