HYPOPLASTIC UTERUS

At birth, the length of the uterus is no more than 3 cm. Gradually, it increases in size, and by the end of puberty, it should reach 7 cm. The length of the narrowest part – the cervix, is normally 2.5 cm. Lower rates are characteristic of a pathological condition – hypoplasia. Due to insufficient or weak development, such a uterus is also called a naive or infantile uterus.

                           A woman’s reproductive organ has a body, a cervix, appendages (ovaries and fallopian tubes), and an isthmus. Any of these departments may begin to lag behind in development. Therefore, medics distinguish several types of hypoplasia.
