Like the didelph uterus and the septal uterus, it is included in the list of anomalies of the Müllerian ducts, pathologies with unknown causes that originate from a development error during embryonic life.
The presence of the bicornuate uterus often causes unpleasant consequences during a pregnancy.
For a correct diagnosis, several instrumental examinations are often needed.
If women with bicornuate uterus do not have any disorders associated with the abnormality, they should not undergo any treatment. Otherwise, doctors consider surgery.
