Hysteroscopic Surgery

A hysteroscopy is a procedure doctors use to diagnose and treat conditions involving the uterus and cervix, such as abnormal uterine bleeding, abnormal endometrial thickening, bleeding after menopause, and infertility.

During a hysteroscopy, your doctor inserts a hysteroscope – a thin tube with a light on the end – into your vagina, through your cervix, and into your uterus. They'll be able to see into your cervix and inside your uterus. They can take a sample for later testing if they find anything abnormal.

Diagnostic hysteroscopy

A diagnostic hysteroscopy allows a doctor to check for causes of abnormal uterine bleeding. Doctors may use a this procedure to diagnose conditions including:

  • Abnormal endometrial thickening
  • Postmenopausal bleeding
  • Blocked fallopian tubes
  • Endometrial cancer
  • Intrauterine adhesions (IUAs), or scar tissue in the uterus
  • Infertility
