Will a tilted uterus cause miscarriage?

Question

Will a tilted uterus cause miscarriage?

Answer 1

No.  A friend of mine has a tilted uterus and is a mother of two.

Answer 2

No not at all! I have one and so did my Mom and she had two perfect kids :o)! My doctor said it's like having brown or blue eyes. It's just shaped different. TONS of women have tilted uteruses. In some cases, it's super tilted which can cause more back pain than usual, but that's it.

Answer 3

Absolutely not

Answer 4

no, my mum has it and it does not make pregnancy more difficult either. look it up on the net

Answer 5

Of course not. I've been told my uterus is tilted and I have a 3 year old daughter and am currently 14 weeks pregnant!

Answer 6

Nope. I have a tilted uterus and I'm 7 months pregnant.

Answer 7

No medical studies have ever tied having a retroverted (tilted) uterus to any risk of miscarriage.

In most cases, a tilted uterus will assume the normal position at some point during pregnancy. Very rarely, a tilted uterus that does not correct during pregnancy may become trapped in the pelvis leading to a condition called "incarcerated uterus." This RARE condition can cause second-trimester miscarriage or other pregnancy complications.

Most women with a tilted uterus have normal, full-term pregnancies, and the risk of miscarriage is no greater or less than a woman without a tilted uterus.

Answer 8

I experienced pre-term labor with all three of my pregnancies.  I am not sure if it was because I had a tilted uterus or not....  Have you asked your doctor his/her advice?  

Answer 9

No.  It can make getting pregnant more difficult- but once you are everything should be fine.  Pregnancy might even correct it.
