Diagnostic and operative hysteroscopy
The procedure can investigate abnormal bleeding and allow a biopsy. Instruments may also be used to remove endometrial polyps or selected fibroids projecting into the cavity.
Comfort and preparation
Pain relief, sedation or anaesthesia are discussed according to your needs and the planned procedure. Tell your doctor if pregnancy is possible. Follow the clinic’s specific preparation instructions.
Recovery and risks
Cramping or light bleeding may occur. Risks include infection, bleeding, injury to the cervix or womb and fluid-related complications. Seek medical advice for fever, severe pain or heavy bleeding.
Your results and next steps
If tissue is removed, the laboratory result guides follow-up. Ask when to expect results and when to resume usual activities.
