Why Cystoscopy Is Needed

Cystoscopy is performed to investigate unexplained blood in the urine, recurrent urinary tract infections, suspected bladder stones, or bladder cancer screening in high-risk patients. It's also used to evaluate chronic pelvic pain, urinary incontinence, or difficulty urinating when the cause isn't clear from other tests.

Signs You May Need Cystoscopy

Blood in the urine, persistent burning or pain during urination, frequent urinary tract infections, or a sudden change in urinary stream and frequency are common symptoms that lead a urologist to recommend cystoscopy. Unexplained pelvic pain or difficulty emptying the bladder fully can also warrant this direct examination.

Types of Cystoscopy

Flexible cystoscopy, using a bendable scope under local anesthesia, is generally used for diagnostic purposes and is more comfortable for the patient. Rigid cystoscopy, requiring spinal or general anesthesia, allows for more extensive procedures like removing bladder stones, taking larger biopsies, or performing minor surgical treatments within the bladder.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is cystoscopy very painful?

Flexible cystoscopy under local anesthesia causes only mild discomfort, similar to a burning or pressure sensation, while rigid cystoscopy under sedation or anesthesia is essentially painless during the procedure.

Will I have burning when I urinate afterward?

Mild burning and increased frequency for 1-2 days is common and usually resolves on its own, aided by drinking plenty of fluids.

How long does the procedure take?

Cystoscopy typically takes just 15-30 minutes, making it a quick outpatient procedure in most cases.

Do I need antibiotics after cystoscopy?

Your urologist may prescribe a short course of antibiotics to reduce infection risk, especially if you have a history of urinary tract infections.

When can I resume normal activity, including intercourse?

Most doctors recommend avoiding intercourse for about 48 hours, with a return to other normal activities much sooner.
