About Hysteroscopy
Hysteroscopy uses a thin camera passed through the cervix to examine the inside of the uterus. It may help investigate bleeding, polyps or uterine cavity concerns. The purpose of the consultation is to understand your concerns, review relevant medical history and discuss whether testing, monitoring or treatment is appropriate. Not every patient needs an intervention; decisions are made in the context of symptoms, health, preferences and available clinical evidence.
When Should You Consult a Doctor?
- You have abnormal uterine bleeding
- Imaging suggests a polyp
- Infertility assessment raises a cavity concern
- A clinician recommends direct examination.
Diagnosis & Treatment
Hysteroscopy may be diagnostic or operative, sometimes allowing removal of polyps or small intracavitary fibroids. Anaesthesia needs, discomfort, infection and perforation risks are explained beforehand. Your clinician will explain any recommended investigation or intervention, potential risks, alternatives, follow-up and expected limitations. Treatment is individualized and outcomes cannot be guaranteed.
