Inflammation can lead to intrauterine adhesions. Inflammatory processes cause significant damage to the endometrium, and in severe cases, patients may develop endometrial defects, thereby increasing the risk of intrauterine adhesion formation. Increased inflammatory exudates within the uterine cavity can destroy the endometrial lining, and once damaged, the blood vessels supplying the endometrium may also fail to regenerate properly. A decreased capacity to respond to estrogen may further contribute to the development of intrauterine adhesions.
