i just had an ultrasound yesterday. The imaging person said i have a slight heart shaped uterus. so s looked on the internet today and didn't find much info about before getting pregnant, just found a lot of info about being pregnant with a heart shaped uterus. so my questions are: does having a heart shaped uterus give you more painful periods? do your chances of even conceiving decrease greatly? I have had unprotected sex for more than 2 years and still not pregnant. and i am very young, being young and having this many problems, doesn't sound so good to me. any successful heart shaped pregnancies out there please tell me your stories. would greatly appreciate it.

I am a guy, so obviously cannot be pregnant. Have found good information about heart-shaped uterus (bi-cornuate uterus). Chances of you being pregnant is likely, but may not carry a pregnancy to term.
bicornuate uterus -- a uterus shape where the two ducts that form the uterus do not fuse and form a single open area, but remain two distinct uterine cavities that may be fused only at the bottom, or even half way. This condition significantly increases the chance for miscarriage and infertility. Depending on the severity of the shape, surgery may be an option to correct the uterus or improve the uterus' ability to carry a pregnancy to term.
