Why Hysteroscopy Is Needed

Hysteroscopy is performed to investigate abnormal uterine bleeding, unexplained infertility, or recurrent miscarriage, and to diagnose or remove uterine polyps, fibroids projecting into the cavity, adhesions, or a septum. It is also used to retrieve a lost IUD or to take a targeted tissue biopsy when other tests suggest an abnormality inside the uterine cavity.

Signs You May Need Hysteroscopy

Patients are typically referred for hysteroscopy when they experience heavy, prolonged, or irregular menstrual bleeding, bleeding between periods or after menopause, difficulty conceiving despite trying for a year or more, or repeated pregnancy loss. Abnormal findings on an ultrasound, such as a suspected polyp or thickened uterine lining, often prompt this procedure for direct visualisation.

Types of Hysteroscopy

Diagnostic hysteroscopy is used purely to visualise the inside of the uterus, often as an outpatient procedure with minimal or no anaesthesia, while operative hysteroscopy uses additional instruments passed through the scope to remove polyps, fibroids, or adhesions in the same sitting. It can also be combined with D&C for more thorough tissue sampling when needed.
