The only concern with a tilted uterus AFAIK is that it could be endometriosis pulling it backwards. I have / had a tilted uterus. It was only picked up on accidently, and was not mentioned at all during my pregnancy. I have had 2 m/c's as well, unrelated, and became pregnant quickly each time so I don't think it hindered me that way.

I know what it feels like. What I did was had my hormone levels checked - I was low on progesterone and that sorted me out. If you haven't already, it might be worth getting your day 3 and 21 bloods checked.

not sure they will test us just yet, march will be exactly 6 months, so going to give it another three and see what they say, what treatment did you get for the low progesterone udderly?? thanks again. x

It took a few cycles to get the meds right. I was prescribed femara at the start of my cycle to boost ovulation, HCG shots after ovulatiob and cyclogest for the first trimester. It worked for me.,
Do you chart your cycles and temp? I suspected after my second m/c that I had low progesterone as I had a short luteal phase and my temps never really went up that much.

Hi Pecka33,

Do you ever watch embarrassing bodies which is on c4 fri evening...last weeks prog had a woman on it with a tilted uterus and she used to get bad stomach cramps as well. They found out she had a pelvic infection..may be worth trying watch it again online..they have a website..just google embarrassing bodies xx

Hi I've got a tiled uterus too. Apparently 1/5 of women have it, and its usually perfectly normal. They don't think anything of it unless you're having problems.
