Studies have also shown that a lot of women have severe adhesions between the niche and the bladder. [7] Adhesions are connective tissue caused by surgery in this case because of the cesarean section. [8] The theory would be that the adhesions pull on the wall of the uterus causing it to be lifted upwards a little bit therefore causing a niche.
There is no data to indicate that suction D&C is less likely than sharp curette to result in Asherman's. A recent article describes three cases of women who developed intrauterine adhesions following manual vacuum aspiration. [24] Intrauterine adhesions also form after hysteroscopic surgery such as myomectomy, polypectomy or septum removal.
To prevent adhesions from forming after caesarean section, adhesion barrier can be placed during surgery to minimize the risk of adhesions between the uterus and ovaries, the small bowel, and almost any tissue in the abdomen or pelvis. This is not current UK practice, as there is no compelling evidence to support the benefit of this intervention.
Almost 1 in 3 births occur via C-section now, but there is a more patient-centered option called a gentle C-section. Here's what it is and what that means. The Rise Of The 'Gentle C-Section'
A study showed that more than 90% of people develop adhesions following open abdominal surgery and that 55–100% of women develop adhesions following pelvic surgery. [13] Adhesions from prior abdominal or pelvic surgery may obscure visibility and access at subsequent abdominal or pelvic surgery.
A lower (uterine) segment caesarean section (LSCS) is the most commonly used type of caesarean section. [1] Most commonly, a baby is delivered by making a transverse incision in the lower uterine segment, above the attachment of the urinary bladder to the uterus.

Adhesions can lead to significant post-surgical morbidity, bowel obstruction, infertility, and chronic pelvic pain or chronic abdominal pain. Surgeons and healthcare professionals developed several methods for minimizing tissue injury in order to minimize the formation of adhesions. However, even an experienced surgeon despite using advanced ...
