The Steps of The Hysteroscopy Procedure
The steps of the hysteroscopy procedure typically involve the following:
- Preparation and sedation
- Insertion of the hysteroscope through the cervix
- Examination of the uterus
- Removing any growths or abnormalities if necessary
- Ending the procedure and recovery
- Many women report that hysteroscopy is not a painful procedure. However, some mild discomfort may be experienced during the insertion and removal of the hysteroscope.
Hysteroscopy is a valuable diagnostic tool for examining the inside of the uterus and can be used for various purposes such as the removal of uterine polyps or fibroids and for assisted reproductive technologies such as IVF. The cost of hysteroscopy varies, but on average it is a reasonably priced procedure. With proper preparation and sedation, the procedure is typically not painful and can greatly improve a woman’s reproductive health.
