Synechiae

I would google it! I just googled it, and got really lost as they point out alot of other things

My daughter has just been diagnosed with Asherman's syndrome. Her condition is so severe that she is no longer able to have children..she doesn't even get periods anymore. She gave birth last June to her first child. Immediately after the birth she bagan to hemmorrage and in the confusion the Dr's neglected to remove the placenta. Two weeks later she once again began to hemmorrage and the mistake was found. It resulted in 2 DNC ....2 weeks after the birth ....they were 1 day apart. They got the bleeding under control and she received blood transfusions. From what I understand Ashermans is common when a DNC is performed right after birth. There is lots of information on the internet under Ashermans syndrome. She is now seeing a specialist at Magee Hospital. Depending on the degree, it's my understanding that it can be reversed. Unfortunately for my daughter...it can not. Good luck to your friend!

My medical dictionary lists 'synechia' as adhesions of parts. Since you didn't specify .. I'm not sure where the adhesions are.
Uterine horns are where the fallopian tubes connect to the uterus .. it just means that area is more pronounced than normal .. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uterine_horns here's a link so she can look at it. Hope this is helpful.

It's actually uterine synchiae, also called Asherman's syndrome. Please check it out on yahoo or google. I don't want to put too much info that might be wrong for her. The best bet would be to research it with her under the ashermans syndrome to learn more. Hope it helps!!

Check out the Web MD site. This site may help you find some answers for synchiae. Best of luck.
