Heart-shaped uterus

Hello everyone,
I've been TTC for over a year now and have had 2 early miscarriages. I went to the Drs because I have very painful periods and suspected maybe endometriosis. They ordered some blood tests and sent me for an ultrasound.
On the day of the ultrasound I was told everything looked normal but to call my doctor a few days later.
When ringing up for the result of my second blood test my doctor told me that my ultrasound showed I have a heart-shaped uterus. I'm waiting now on a gynaecology referral.

She told me the medical name and told me to look it up if I wanted to know more but that while it wouldn't stop me having kids it did explain the difficulty I've had.
I'm finding this really difficult now. Nothing I looked up looks particularly promising, and just talks about the increased risks and statistics that look scary. I don't know how bad the deformation is (though she said it was 'mild') or what the gynaecologist will do or say. I know my doctors surgery are very busy but I wish I could have had an appointment to maybe see it for myself rather than being told over the phone.
I'm feeling very low and like it's my fault for being made wrong.
I was just wondering if anyone else has had this and knows what the way forward looks like?
(Please move if this is not the right board)

I’ve had two children, both my only pregnancies, and at a recent scan of my womb she casually mentioned I had a heart shaped uterus and asked if I knew. I had no idea! Just wanted to give you some good statistics Smile
