What is a hysteroscopy?
A hysteroscopy is a minimally invasive procedure that allows your doctor to examine the inside of your uterus (womb) using a hysteroscope. A hysteroscope is a thin, lighted tube that is inserted through the vagina and cervix (the opening to the uterus).
What are Hysteroscopies used for?
There are two main types of hysteroscopies:
Diagnostic hysteroscopy:
This procedure is used to diagnose the cause of abnormal uterine bleeding, heavy periods, pelvic pain, infertility, or recurrent miscarriages.
Operative hysteroscopy:
This procedure is used to treat uterine problems found during a diagnostic hysteroscopy. This may involve removing polyps, fibroids, scar tissue (adhesions), or placing an IUD.
Benefits of a Hysteroscopy
- Minimally invasive
- Relatively short procedure time
- Often performed on an outpatient basis
- Allows for direct visualization of the uterus
- Can be used for both diagnosis and treatment
What to expect during a Hysteroscopy
At Onyx Endoscopy & Fertility Clinic, Dr. Vijay Satale, a renowned laparoscopic surgeon in Hadapsar, provides hysteroscopy services. A hysteroscopy is usually performed in a doctor’s office or outpatient surgical center. You may be given local anesthesia to numb your cervix or general anesthesia to put you to sleep. The doctor will insert the hysteroscope through your vagina and cervix and into your uterus. They will then use a saline solution or gas to inflate your uterus for a better view. The doctor will examine the inside of your uterus using the hysteroscope and may take a tissue sample (biopsy) if needed.
Recovery after a Hysteroscopy
Recovery from a hysteroscopy is usually quick. You may experience some cramping or vaginal bleeding after the procedure. You should be able to go home shortly after the procedure and resume normal activities within a day or two.
