Hysteroscopy

Hysteroscopy is a medical procedure that allows doctors to examine the inside of a woman’s uterus using a thin, lighted tube called a hysteroscope. This instrument is inserted through the vagina and cervix into the uterus. Hysteroscopy can help diagnose and treat various uterine conditions, such as abnormal bleeding, fibroids, or polyps. It is often performed in a clinic or hospital and may be done under local or general anesthesia. The procedure helps physicians gather important information and can sometimes address issues without the need for more invasive surgery.
