Frequently Asked Questions
Hysteroscopy Procedure by Dr. Raman Narang
1. What is hysteroscopy?
Hysteroscopy is a procedure that allows your doctor to look inside your uterus (womb) using a thin, lighted scope inserted through the vagina and cervix, without any external cuts.
2. Why is a hysteroscopy performed?
It is used to investigate abnormal bleeding, pelvic pain, infertility, recurrent miscarriages, and to diagnose or treat uterine conditions like fibroids, polyps, scar tissue, and displaced intrauterine devices (IUDs).
3. How is a hysteroscopy done?
A hysteroscope is gently passed through the cervix into the uterus, often with a fluid or gas to expand the uterine cavity for better visualization on a monitor.
4. Is anesthesia required?
Some hysteroscopies are performed without anesthesia, especially for diagnostic purposes. Operative hysteroscopies, which involve treatment, may require local, regional, or general anesthesia depending on the case.
5. How long does the procedure take?
Typically, a hysteroscopy takes about 5 to 30 minutes depending on whether it is diagnostic or operative.
6. What should I expect after hysteroscopy?
You may experience mild cramping, spotting, or light bleeding for a few days. Most women can resume normal activities quickly but should avoid tampon use or vaginal intercourse for about two weeks.
7. Are there any risks?
Complications are rare but can include uterine perforation, infection, bleeding, or damage to nearby organs. Contact your doctor if you experience severe pain, heavy bleeding, fever, or unusual discharge.
8. How do I prepare for a hysteroscopy?
Usually, no special preparation or fasting is required. It is often best done soon after menstruation ends for clearer visibility. Your doctor will give specific instructions based on your case.
9. When should I call my doctor after the procedure?
If you have severe pain, heavy bleeding, fever, chills, or foul-smelling discharge, contact your healthcare provider immediately
