I had an ultrasound today (checking my egg
follicles) and the doctor told me I have a
tilted uterus. I'm 28, how come i'm just
now being told this? How could it not
have been noticed before? My doctor told
me it's nothing to be concerned about
& should not have any effect ttc.

I do! I didn't find out until I was
pregnant last time and went in for my
first appointment. It's not a problem. I
did read that if you're ttc that you
should be laying on your stomach after sex
and using rear entry positions. I don't
know if it's true but up until last month
i'd always lay on my back with my hips
elevated and then I read that and started
laying on my stomach and now i'm pregnant,
so who knows?

Well, I guess if you're laying on your
back then the semen is just going to pool
behind the entrance to your uterus since
it's tilted. If you lay on your stomach
it should flow right to it. At least
that's the way I understand it. Give it a
try!

thanks! I'll be 6 weeks on tuesday. It
took 4 months which doesn't seem long but
I had a miscarriage at 13 weeks in october
after trying for 8 months so that made it
seem like it took forever. Cross your
fingers this one sticks!

Hey! I do have a tilted uterus. It may
affect your chances of getting pregnant
though, compare to those who has straight
uterus. But it is not that you can't get
preg.
I am also diagnoise with pcos. That's
doubly hard to get preggy.

I don't know, that's a good question. I
have a son & was never told I had a
tilted uterus until last week. Has my
uterus always been tilted or did being
pregnant with my so cause it?

Tilted Uterus

I have a tilted uterus also. I found out
when I got pregnant with my son. When I
got pregnant we used a rear entry
position. The uterus straightens out
with pregnancy and then go back to tilted
after pregnancy. I saw a different doc
for a yearly pap after my son was born.
She was able to tell I had a tilted uterus
through examination. She did make the
comment, "i guess that didn't affect your
ability to get pregnant." otherwise I
didn't know it affected conception.

I have a tilted uterus. I also have 3
children and didn't find out until after
one ( 1st or 2nd) of the was born.
No, it' doesn't go back, because it is
still tilted, maybe even moreso. When I
get my period, I have major back pains, no
cramping in the front like when I was a
teenager. Interesting, I thought.
Never thought of lying on my stomach, may
try that next time!
