What are the consequences of uterine calcification?

Uterine calcification is a descriptive term of ultrasound imaging, mainly refers to the high echo or strong echo on the endometrium. Pathologically, it may be due to endometrial hyperplasia or local tissue residue, which forms calcification after a long time, such as residual tissue after drug abortion, abortion, or calcification shadow left by postpartum placenta implantation. It may also be related to some tuberculosis lesions. If the calcification is relatively small, it generally has no great influence, such as punctate calcification. However, if the area of calcification is relatively large, it may cause the endometrium to be too thin, affecting the implantation of embryos, resulting in infertility. Therefore, if calcification is found, it is recommended to do hysteroscopy, take out the calcification tissue, send pathological examination, clarify the cause of calcification, and targeted treatment.
