Is a retroverted uterus a cause of infertility?

A uterus is an organ that can move freely. It may form in different positions: anteverted, middle or retroverted. These positions of uterus can happen commonly and naturally to an individual but don’t affect the ability to conceive.

Therefore, if you notice any symptoms or abnormalities in your body, please hurry up to consult with a specialized doctor in order to find out the appropriate treatment respectively.
