What is hysteroscopy?

Hysteroscopy is a procedure that involves the insertion of a thin, lighted tube with a camera (hysteroscope) through the vagina and cervix into the uterus. It allows the gynecologist to visualize the uterine cavity and diagnose or treat various conditions.

Why is hysteroscopy performed?

Hysteroscopy is performed for both diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. It can help identify the cause of abnormal uterine bleeding, investigate fertility issues, remove polyps or fibroids, evaluate and treat uterine adhesions or septum’s, and assist in the placement of contraceptive devices or intrauterine devices (IUDs).

How is hysteroscopy performed?

Hysteroscopy is typically performed as an outpatient procedure. The patient may receive local or general anesthesia depending on the specific case. The hysteroscope is inserted into the uterus through the vagina and cervix, and carbon dioxide or saline solution is used to expand the uterine cavity for better visualization. The gynecologist can then examine the uterus and perform necessary treatments.

What are the benefits of hysteroscopy?

Hysteroscopy offers several benefits compared to traditional open surgery. It is minimally invasive, resulting in smaller incisions, less pain, shorter recovery time, and reduced risk of complications. Hysteroscopy also provides direct visualization of the uterine cavity, allowing for accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment.
