What Is Hysteroscopy?
Hysteroscopy visualizes the inside of the uterus with a thin camera system. It can be diagnostic or operative, allowing selected polyps, submucosal fibroids or uterine septum to be treated.
When Is It Recommended?
It may be considered for abnormal bleeding, recurrent miscarriage, infertility evaluation, suspected uterine polyps or fibroids, intrauterine adhesions or septum.
- Removal of uterine polyps
- Removal of submucosal fibroids
- Evaluation of uterine septum or anomalies
- Recurrent miscarriage and infertility evaluation
After the Procedure
Mild cramping and spotting may occur. Pathology results, bleeding pattern and pregnancy plans are reviewed during follow-up.
