A hysteroscopy is a minimally invasive procedure in which a hysteroscope (a long, skinny camera) is used to look inside the uterus. The procedure allows your Plano OB/GYN to evaluate the causes of abnormal bleeding or infertility and to remove masses, such as polyps or fibroids. A hysteroscopy in Plano can be used to diagnose, as well as treat certain conditions.
One way we utilize this procedure is to help diagnose problems with the uterus. Diagnostic hysteroscopy can also be used to confirm results of other diagnostic tests, like an ultrasound or hysterosalpingogram (HSG.)
An operative hysteroscopy in Plano can help correct certain conditions. In fact, in many cases, we can perform the diagnostic test and surgical procedure in the same appointment. This can save time and inconvenience by avoiding a second surgical appointment.
During an operative hysteroscopic surgery, small instruments are inserted through the hysteroscope and used to remove growths and correct certain conditions.
Hysteroscopic surgery is performed as an outpatient procedure and does not require an overnight stay.
Recovery is typically quick with minimal cramping and bleeding being the most common side effects. Most patients can return to work and normal functioning within one to two days after surgery.
We’re sure you still have a lot of questions about hysteroscopic surgery in Plano. We welcome you to contact our team to schedule a consultation. We’ll perform diagnostic tests, discuss your case, answer your questions, and determine whether this procedure is right for your unique needs.
