What is Hysteroscopy ?

Hysteroscopy is a procedure that allow us look inside your womb (uterus). This is done using a narrow tube-like instrument called a hysteroscope. The hysteroscope is very slim (about 3 to 5 millimetres in diameter). It’s carefully passed through the vagina and neck of the womb (cervix) and into your uterus. The hysteroscope has a video camera inside which sends pictures to a computer screen. This allows us to check for any abnormalities in the lining of the uterus.

The most common symptoms are:

Abnormal Uterine Bleeding

Fibroids or Polyps

Repeated Miscarriages

Unexplained Infertility

Hysteroscopy

Uterine surgery and contraceptive management

Remove scar tissue in the uterus.
Perform endometrial ablation – a procedure where the lining of the womb is made thinner in order to prevent heavy periods.
Remove adhesions (areas where the walls of the uterus are sticking together).
Remove non-cancerous growths (fibroids) in the uterus.
Locate a ‘lost’ or stuck contraceptive device, such as an intrauterine contraceptive device (IUCD) – also known as a ‘coil’.procedures like
