[1] Women with a bicornuate uterus are at an increased risk of recurrent miscarriage, [2] [10] preterm birth, [2] [11] malpresentation, [2] [12] disruptions to fetal growth, [13] premature rupture of membranes, placenta previa and ...

The uterus is "heart-shaped". This condition can be complete or partial. Class V—Septated uterus (uterine septum or ...

However, Sadie has company: In 2006, a 23-year-old British woman had triplets across two uteruses — twins who grew in one uterus, and another girl who grew in the other.
An insufficient flow of blood to the uterus would compromise nutritional supply to the foetus and waste removal from the foetus, and this can explain the heightened occurrence of low foetal birth weight (intrauterine growth restriction) and spontaneous abortions in women with Müllerian anomalies.
In women with bicornuate uterus and in need of contraception, two IUDs are generally applied (one in each horn) due to lack of evidence of efficacy with only one IUD.
