Diagnostic Hysteroscopy & laparoscopy
Diagnostic Hysteroscopy and Laparoscopy at HOPE Women’s Hospital
Diagnostic hysteroscopy and laparoscopy are minimally invasive procedures used to examine and diagnose conditions affecting the female reproductive system. These procedures allow healthcare providers to visualize the uterus, fallopian tubes, ovaries, and surrounding structures, helping to identify and evaluate various gynecological issues. At HOPE Women’s Hospital, we offer expert diagnostic hysteroscopy and laparoscopy services to support women’s reproductive health and well-being.Diagnostic Hysteroscopy
Hysteroscopy is a procedure that involves inserting a thin, flexible instrument called a hysteroscope into the uterus through the vagina and cervix. The hysteroscope has a light and camera that allow the healthcare provider to view the inside of the uterus on a monitor in real time. Diagnostic hysteroscopy is commonly used to:
- Evaluate Abnormal Uterine Bleeding: Investigate the cause of heavy menstrual bleeding (menorrhagia), irregular periods, postmenopausal bleeding, or bleeding between periods.
- Assess Uterine Abnormalities: Detect and evaluate uterine abnormalities such as polyps, fibroids (myomas), adhesions (synechiae), septums, or other structural issues.
- Diagnose Infertility: Examine the uterine cavity, assess the presence of abnormalities that may affect fertility, and evaluate the need for further fertility treatments.
- Investigate Miscarriages: Determine the cause of recurrent miscarriages or pregnancy complications related to uterine abnormalities.
- Guide Treatment Planning: Provide visual information that guides treatment decisions for various gynecological conditions, such as endometrial ablation, polyp removal, or intrauterine device (IUD) placement.
Benefits of Minimally Invasive Diagnostic Procedures
- Less Invasive: Compared to traditional open surgery, diagnostic hysteroscopy and laparoscopy are minimally invasive procedures that require smaller incisions, leading to less pain, scarring, and faster recovery times.
- Accurate Diagnosis: By providing direct visualization of the pelvic organs, these procedures allow for accurate diagnosis of gynecological conditions, leading to targeted treatment plans and improved outcomes.
- Outpatient Procedure: Diagnostic hysteroscopy and laparoscopy are often performed on an outpatient basis, allowing patients to return home the same day and resume normal activities quickly.
- Reduced Risks: Minimally invasive procedures carry lower risks of complications such as infection, bleeding, and anesthesia-related issues compared to open surgery.
