Description
Ahyoung Choi, Min-A Kim, Geum Joon Cho, and Han Sung Hwang published a 2026 cohort study of pregnancy outcomes in women born with womb malformations. Using Korean health data covering 878,000 single births from 2018 to 2023, they found about 6,000 women with such anomalies, most often a double uterus. Outcomes were compared after adjusting for age, parity, and chronic conditions.
Risks ran higher across the board: cesarean birth, breech position, placenta problems, and early delivery all rose. Babies faced more breathing distress, small size, and brain bleeding, with odds up to about three times normal. Patterns varied by malformation type. The authors urge tailored counseling and closer monitoring for these pregnancies.
