Ep 133 Is Your Tilted or Retroverted Uterus Harming Your Fertility?

Ep 133 Is Your Tilted or Retroverted Uterus Harming Your Fertility?

Is a tilted uterus stopping you from getting pregnant? Could it be the reason for painful periods or backaches? Has the term "retroverted uterus" been brought up at one of your recent doctor's appointments?

In this episode of Brave & Curious, Dr. Lora Shahine is taking the mystery out of the retroverted (or tilted) uterus. She explains what it is, how common it is, and whether it impacts fertility or pregnancy. Good news: in most cases, it doesn't.

Dr. Shahine also sheds light on when a tilted uterus might signal something more—like endometriosis, pelvic infections, or fibroids—and how that can influence reproductive health.

Listeners will walk away with a solid understanding of what a retroverted uterus is (and isn't), what symptoms to watch for, and when it's worth checking with your medical provider.

In this episode you'll hear:

  • [1:22] What is a retroverted or tilted uterus?
  • [2:59] How common is it to have one?
  • [4:34] Retroverted uterus and fertility
  • [6:25] Retroverted uterus and pregnancy
  • [6:48] Advice for patients
  • [7:41] Final thoughts
