    Area of Science:

    • Obstetrics and Gynecology
    • Medical Imaging
    • Reproductive Health

    Background:

    • Postpartum uterine involution is a critical period for assessing reproductive health.
    • Uterine configuration abnormalities can impact fertility and pregnancy outcomes.
    • Early detection of uterine abnormalities is essential for timely intervention.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the utility of ultrasonic hysterography in assessing postpartum uterine configuration.
    • To determine the prevalence of abnormal uterine configurations in the early postpartum period.
    • To compare ultrasonic findings with previous uterine assessments.

    Main Methods:

    • Ultrasonic hysterography was performed on 104 patients.
    • Examinations were conducted between the 2nd and 5th postpartum days.

  • Ultrasonic diagnoses were compared with prior uterine investigation results.

    • Main Results:

    • An unexpectedly high prevalence of abnormal uterine configurations was observed in 16% of patients.
    • Ultrasonic hysterography effectively identified uterine abnormalities in the early postpartum phase.
    • Comparison with previous investigations confirmed the diagnostic accuracy of ultrasound.

    Conclusions:

    • Ultrasonic hysterography is a valuable tool for detecting postpartum uterine abnormalities.
    • A significant percentage of women exhibit abnormal uterine configurations shortly after delivery.
    • Routine postpartum ultrasound may aid in identifying women requiring further gynecological evaluation.
