Understanding Hysteroscopy


Hysteroscopy is a minimally invasive procedure used to diagnose and treat problems within the uterus. By utilizing a hysteroscope, a thin, lighted tube with a camera, doctors can view the inside of the uterus and perform surgical interventions with minimal discomfort. At Shishu IVF Fertility Centre, we strive to provide comprehensive information about hysteroscopy, its processes, and how it can help you achieve your dream of parenthood.

The Hysteroscopy Process

1. Preoperative Consultation:

The process begins with a thorough consultation to evaluate your medical history and discuss the reasons for undergoing hysteroscopy. Our specialists will explain the procedure, its benefits, and any potential risks.

2. Preparation:

Before the procedure, you will receive specific instructions, including fasting and avoiding certain medications. Preoperative tests may also be conducted to ensure you are fit for the procedure.

3. Anesthesia:

Hysteroscopy can be performed under local, regional, or general anesthesia, depending on the nature of the procedure and your medical condition.

4. Procedure:

The hysteroscope is gently inserted through the cervix into the uterus. The uterus is then expanded with a fluid or gas to provide a clear view of the uterine cavity. The hysteroscope transmits images to a monitor, allowing the surgeon to examine the inside of the uterus and perform necessary interventions, such as removing polyps, fibroids, or adhesions.

5. Recovery:

After the procedure, you will be monitored in the recovery room until the effects of anesthesia wear off. Most patients can go home the same day.

6. Postoperative Care:

You will receive detailed postoperative care instructions, including guidelines for activity restrictions and follow-up appointments. Pain medication may be prescribed to manage any discomfort.

Indications for Hysteroscopy

Hysteroscopy is recommended for various conditions, including:

  • Abnormal Uterine Bleeding: Diagnosing and treating the cause of abnormal bleeding.
  • Uterine Polyps and Fibroids: Removing polyps or fibroids that may be causing symptoms or affecting fertility.

  • Congenital Uterine Anomalies: Diagnosing and correcting structural abnormalities of the uterus.
  • Ectopic Pregnancy: Treating pregnancies that occur outside the uterus.
  • Recurrent Miscarriages: Investigating and treating potential uterine causes of repeated miscarriages.

Success Rates and Factors

The success rates of hysteroscopy in diagnosing and treating uterine conditions vary depending on several factors, including:

  • Condition Being Treated: The specific condition and its severity can impact the success of the procedure.
  • Surgeon’s Experience: Experienced surgeons typically achieve better outcomes.
