Asherman’s Syndrome, also known as intrauterine adhesions, is a condition in which scar tissue bands form inside the uterus, leading to partial or complete fusion of the uterine walls. This condition can significantly impact fertility, menstrual health, and overall quality of life.
At Advance Gynecology Center, Hyderabad, Dr. Tanvir, a renowned gynecologist and specialist in minimally invasive endoscopic surgeries, offers expert evaluation and treatment for Asherman’s Syndrome. With advanced training in office hysteroscopy and operative hysteroscopic procedures, Dr. Tanvir ensures accurate diagnosis and effective, fertility-preserving treatments for this complex condition.
Asherman’s Syndrome is a gynecological condition where scar tissue or adhesions form inside the uterus. These adhesions may partially or completely obliterate the uterine cavity, limiting the space required for embryo implantation and normal menstruation.
- Mild to severe adhesions may form after uterine trauma.
- The uterus becomes less receptive to embryo implantation.
- Menstrual flow may be reduced, irregular, or absent.
Common Symptoms of Asherman’s Syndrome
- Infertility or repeated miscarriages
- Light or absent menstrual periods (amenorrhea or hypomenorrhea)
- Painful periods (due to trapped blood)
- Recurrent pregnancy loss
- Difficulty conceiving despite ovulation
Causes of Asherman’s Syndrome
Asherman’s syndrome is often caused by trauma to the uterine lining, especially after a surgical procedure. Common causes include:
- Dilation and Curettage (D&C) after miscarriage or abortion
- Postpartum infections or uterine surgeries (e.g., myomectomy)
- Tuberculosis or other uterine infections (less commonly)
Diagnosis at Advance Gynecology Center
Early and accurate diagnosis is crucial for effective treatment. Dr. Tanvir uses a combination of the following diagnostic techniques:
- Saline Infusion Sonography (SIS):
A specialized ultrasound that uses saline to highlight uterine adhesions.
- Office Hysteroscopy:
A minimally invasive, in-clinic procedure that allows direct visualization of the uterine cavity without general anesthesia.
Office hysteroscopy is Dr. Tanvir’s preferred diagnostic and treatment tool for Asherman’s Syndrome. It offers precision, safety, and comfort for the patient.
Treatment Options: Focus on Hysteroscopic Adhesiolysis
The mainstay of treatment for Asherman’s Syndrome is the hysteroscopic removal of intrauterine adhesions.
Office Hysteroscopic Adhesiolysis
Dr. Tanvir specializes in performing this advanced procedure using a small-diameter hysteroscope:
- Minimally invasive, no incisions
- Performed under local anesthesia or mild sedation
- Allows direct visualization and targeted removal of adhesions
- Reduces the risk of damage to healthy endometrial tissue
Post-operative Management:
- Placement of an intrauterine balloon or IUD to prevent recurrence
- Estrogen therapy to encourage endometrial regeneration
- Scheduled follow-up hysteroscopy to assess uterine healing
