By strict defintion, Asherman's syndrome is complete obliteration of the uterine cavity. Commonly, scarring in the cavity from D&C is referred to the same way. It is possible you have scarring over the outflow tract of the uterine cavity, and there is now a channel where menstrual blood can exit. The least invasive way to evaluate your uterine cavity is a PROPERLY performed HSG. Unfortunately, very few radiologist perform the study in a manner that provides adequate information about the uterine cavity.
Good luck.

ok, today my dr sent me for a pelvic/vaginal ultrasound and my uterus was not stuck together as ive sometimes heard with ashermans, but, there was fluid in my uterus. it looked like an early gestation sac, but i know im not pregnant as i just finished my cycle on the 8th. it was light but that is normal for me since the retained placenta. i havent heard from my dr and im climbing the walls. my question is, ive heard of a type of ashermans that is difficult to treat, called "unstuck" ashermans. does this typically present with fluid? i live in a small town and im worried they wont know what to do. the lady doing the ultrasound looked baffled. she must have asked me a dozen times when my last pregnancy test was, and was talking about debris. what would you reccomend i do next?

thanks so much!

Without seeing your uterine cavity or participating in your care, I cannot provide valid recommendations. You will have to speak with your physician. Call and ask.
Good luck.
