What is Hysteroscopy? Hysteroscopy is the exam of the inside of the womb (uterus) using thin, lighted telescope-like device with a camera at the end called a hysteroscope. The hysteroscope is passed into your womb through your vagina and cervix (entrance to the womb), which means no cuts needed to be made in your skin. It is used to diagnose or treat problems with the uterus. Hysteroscopy can be done with two methods: Office Hysteroscopy without Anesthesia Hysteroscopy with Anesthesia When is the best time to have a Hysteroscopy? If your periods are regular, your surgeon will likely recommend scheduling your hysteroscopy for the 1 to 5 days after your stop bleeding. This timing will allow the best view of the inside of your uterus. It is possible to perform hysteroscopy during ovarian stimulation or before it to cause endometrial scraping or to fix the problem even during menstruation. When we use hysteroscopy: Investigate symptoms or problems such as heavy periods, unusual vaginal bleeding, postmenopausal bleeding, pelvic pain, repeated miscarriages or difficulty getting pregnant. Diagnose conditions such as fibroids and polyps (non-cancerous growths in the womb). Treat conditions and problems such as removing fibroids, polyps, displaced intrauterine devices (IUDs)and intrauterine adhesions (scar tissue that causes absent periods and reduced fertility). When we do use Hysteroscopy without anesthesia? An anesthesia consult is recommended if there is any uncertainty of the women’s surgical status. Often this procedure (such as diagnostic hysteroscopy or endometrial scraping or removal of small polyps) can be performed without a general anesthesia but rather a regional anesthetic (epidural/spinal) or a local anesthetic. The anesthesiologist will help you choose the safest method of anesthesia. As a result, fasting is necessary before hysteroscopy. What should we do before hysteroscopy? Fasting is necessary for hysteroscopy. You should eat diet dinner at night before. Also, do not eat gum and drink water 12 hours before hysteroscopy. You should use betadine gel at the last night before a hysteroscopy process. You should take Doxycycline capsule every 12 hours from last day before hysteroscopy until 3 days after hysteroscopy. You should eat 2 milligrams of Diazepam half an hour before sleeping at the night before hysteroscopy. Remove ALL body piercings and jewelry. No nail polish or acrylic nails Check in center with a companion at 7:30 AM Arrange for someone to drive you there and drive you back (the spouse is required to be present). Shower with soap but don’t use any lotion. Bring all your medical documents, especially hysterosalpingography and blood test results. If you catch a cold a few days near your process or decided to cancel it, inform the center. Sometimes, according to the doctor’s diagnosis, it is recommended to perform hysteroscopy along with laparoscopy. Conditions for both are the same. While you’re recovering: On the first day after the operation, you can eat a liquid diet and then start the normal diet. If you have cramping that’s similar to period pain, this should pass in a few days and you can take regular painkillers such as paracetamol or ibuprofen in the meantime. If you have spotting or bleeding, this can last up to a week or more; use sanitary towels rather than tampons until your next period to help reduce the risk of your womb or cervix (entrance to the womb) becoming infected. Don’t douche or have sex for 2 weeks after the procedure, or as advised by your healthcare provider. You can go back to normal activity and diet unless your healthcare provider tells you otherwise. *After your procedure, it’s important to watch for any symptoms of infection / fevers / abdominal pain that becomes more intense over time and heavy bleeding you must call with our section (+98919963923).
