Abstract

Intrauterine adhesions are a serious complication that occurs after intrauterine procedures, most often in connection with pregnancy. Manifestations such as amenorrhea, pelvic pain and infertility for a woman especially in reproductive age are serious and together with intrauterine adhesions we call them Asherman's syndrome. Primary prevention after intrauterine procedures is important. Published studies show that the use of hyaluronic acic gel, especially after abortions, leads to the prevention of moderate and severe intrauterine adhesions and also increases the pregnancy rate.
