Asherman syndrome occurs when intrauterine adhesions (scar tissue) partially or completely distort the uterine cavity. It may cause lighter or absent periods, menstrual pain, infertility, or recurrent miscarriage. It most commonly develops after injury to the endometrium, particularly following uterine procedures related to pregnancy, miscarriage, or delivery.
Hysteroscopy is the gold standard for diagnosis and treatment, allowing the adhesions to be identified and carefully divided under direct vision. In selected cases, postoperative measures may be used to reduce the risk of recurrence.
Restoring the uterine cavity can improve menstrual function and reproductive potential, although outcomes depend largely on the severity of the adhesions.
