Hysteroscopy<\/h1>\n<\/div>
<\/div><\/div><\/div>

When and Why<\/h2>\n<\/div>

Specialists perform hysteroscopy in order to diagnose and treat uterine gynecologic problems and specially in infertility.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Its main purpose is the investigation of uterine bleeding. The doctor should exclude the case of a neoplasia. Uterine bleeding could also be the result of hormone perturbation or benign uterine disease, for instance polyps.<\/p>\n<\/div>

By hysteroscopy, the doctor can diagnose all these conditions are with ease and accuracy under direct vision. Also, he\/she can do a biopsy if there is evidence. The high sensitivity of the method has established it as the \u2018golden rule\u2019 in the diagnosis of endometrial disorders. It tends to replace the classic curettage of the endometrium.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Other conditions that they can investigate or treat with hysteroscopy are overly painful menstruation and irregular or unusually light menstrual periods. Other conditions are morphological abnormalities of the uterus such as the diaphragm, abortions and pelvic pain.<\/p>\n<\/div>

When investigating infertility, we can obtain information about the morphology and size of the endometrial cavity, as well as the quality of the endometrium, the place of embryo implantation of the fetus.<\/p>\n<\/div>

\n

The doctors should perform hysteroscopy either diagnostic or operative in the first half of the woman\u2019s cycle (more particularly between the 6th and 12th day of the period.<\/strong> If they perform hysteroscopy, beyond these time limits, the results are unreliable and lead the doctors to misconceptions.<\/p>\n<\/div>

How a diagnostic hysteroscopy is performed?<\/h2>\n<\/div>

During office hysteroscopy, the gynecologist places the patient in a lithotomy position (the usual gynecological position). Then, he\/ she inserts the hysteroscope is through the vagina and the cervix into the uterine cavity.<\/p>\n<\/div>

The doctor can see the cervical lumen sequentially, the panoramic representation of the intrauterine cavity and a localization of the tubal orifices. He also performs a detailed examination of all pathological foci of the intrauterine cavity.<\/p>\n<\/div>

The doctor gives the ability to the patient to monitor the screen and inform her about the findings during the examination. At the end of the examination, the patient leaves the clinic, as after any usual gynecological examination.<\/p>\n<\/div>

It is a day hospital procedure.<\/p>\n<\/div>
