Office hysteroscopy is a safe and effective surgical process that is used to examine the uterine cavity and diagnose abnormalities in the uterus, such as polyps, fibroids, or scarring. It is a medical procedure that is performed by using a hysteroscope (a medical instrument with a light and a camera at the end).
Office hysteroscopy is done at the doctor’s clinic, and there is no need for general anaesthesia in this process as it includes direct visualisation. You may be administered a local anaesthesia.
Office hysteroscopy is required for various purposes, and below are some of the situations for which hysteroscopy is required.
Office hysteroscopy is a valuable tool in the field of gynaecology and offers the following benefits:
It is a minimally invasive procedure that does not require large incisions to perform, which promotes a quick recovery and less post-operative pain.
The office hysteroscopy procedure includes direct visualisation of the uterine cavity. Therefore, this procedure provides accurate results and the identification of various gynaecological issues, such as polyps and uterine fibroids.
In comparison to other traditional hysteroscopy surgeries performed in hospitals, office hysteroscopy incurs less cost as it is performed at the doctor’s office.
Office hysteroscopy is a procedure that requires little preparation before the procedure. However, some situations have to be taken care of before the procedure.
You should not schedule your office hysteroscopy procedure if you are on your period or if you are pregnant.
Try consulting your OB-GYN before going for the procedure if you are dealing with pelvic issues.
Make sure to have an office hysteroscopy after seven days when your period ends.
Discuss your concerns and talk about your specific situation before the procedure with your gynaecologist to experience a safe and sound procedure.
Office hysteroscopy is performed at the doctor’s office without using general anaesthesia; however, local anaesthesia is required to numb the cervix. This procedure usually takes five minutes or less, and patients who’ve undergone it report less pain and discomfort.
It is a safe procedure that includes the insertion of a speculum (a small tool that goes into the vagina and gently opens). After that, a hysteroscope with a tiny camera at one end is inserted through the cervix. This can give a clear view of the internal organs, and gynaecologists should look for the polyps fibroids, or any other abnormalities.
After that, your doctor will explain to you the findings, if any, found during the procedure.
After the completion of the procedure, you can immediately resume your daily activities.
A gynaecological procedure such as office hysteroscopy is a very cost-effective procedure as it is an outpatient procedure. However, several conditions affect the cost of the procedure, such as the patient’s health condition, the use of anaesthesia, and the severity of the issue.
