Diagnostic Hysteroscopy
Advanced uterine evaluation with minimal discomfort and maximum precision
What is Diagnostic Hysteroscopy?
Diagnostic hysteroscopy is a minimally invasive procedure that allows our fertility specialists to examine the inside of your uterus using a thin, lighted tube called a hysteroscope.
This procedure provides direct visualization of the uterine cavity, helping to identify and diagnose conditions that may be affecting your fertility or causing abnormal uterine bleeding.
At Triman IVF, we perform diagnostic hysteroscopy with the latest high-definition imaging systems for precise visualization and accurate diagnosis.
When is it Recommended?
- Abnormal uterine bleeding
- Poor sperm motility (asthenozoospermia)
- Abnormal sperm morphology (teratozoospermia)
- Varicocele (enlarged veins in the scrotum)
- Hormonal imbalances
- Genetic factors
The Procedure
1
Pre-Procedure Preparation
Before your procedure, our team will review your medical history and perform preliminary tests. The procedure is typically scheduled during the first week after your menstrual period when the uterine lining is thinnest, allowing for better visualization.
2
The Examination
During the procedure, you will lie on an examination table in a position similar to a pelvic examination. The doctor gently inserts the hysteroscope through your vagina and cervix into the uterus. A sterile solution is used to expand the uterine cavity for better visualization. The procedure typically takes 15-30 minutes and is performed under local anesthesia or mild sedation for your comfort.
3
Diagnosis
Our specialists carefully examine the uterine cavity, looking for abnormalities such as polyps, fibroids, adhesions, or structural abnormalities. High-definition cameras on the hysteroscope allow for detailed imaging and documentation. In some cases, we may take small tissue samples (biopsies) for further laboratory analysis.
4
Recovery and Follow-up
After the procedure, you may experience mild cramping or spotting, which typically resolves within a day or two. Most patients can return to normal activities the next day. Our team will schedule a follow-up appointment to discuss the findings and recommend appropriate treatment plans based on the diagnosis.
Conditions We Diagnose
Uterine Polyps
Soft, tissue growths that extend from the uterine lining which can interfere with implantation or cause abnormal bleeding.
Detection accuracy: 98%
Submucosal Fibroids
Benign muscular tumors that grow within the uterine wall and can distort the uterine cavity, potentially affecting fertility.
Detection accuracy: 95%
Uterine Septum
A congenital malformation where a tissue wall divides the uterine cavity, which can increase the risk of miscarriage.
Detection accuracy: 99%
Intrauterine Adhesions
Scar tissue inside the uterus, often resulting from previous surgeries, which can reduce the size of the uterine cavity.
Detection accuracy: 97%
Endometrial Hyperplasia
Abnormal thickening of the uterine lining that can affect fertility and potentially lead to cancer if left untreated.
Detection accuracy: 96%
Retained Products of Conception
Tissue remaining in the uterus after a miscarriage or delivery that can cause bleeding and infection.
Detection accuracy: 98%
