'Asherman's Syndrome' can cause infertility and miscarriage.

A condition called 'Asherman's Syndrome', which doctors have previously been slow to diagnose, has been shown to make conceiving difficult and can also cause miscarriage. Following the 'dilation and curettage' procedure, which is carried out after a women has a miscarriage or an abortion, the uterus can sometimes be scarred. Almost 3,500 people are affected by Asherman's Syndrome every year. The good news is that the condition's treatable and the procedure is quite simple. Apparently, very few women know about the syndrome so awareness needs to be increased. What are your thoughts? Had you ever heard of this syndrome?
