What is a Gynaecological Ultrasound?
A gynaecological ultrasound is a non-invasive imaging test that uses high-frequency sound waves to create detailed images of the reproductive organs, including the uterus, ovaries, and fallopian tubes. Ultrasounds are essential for diagnosing conditions, monitoring ongoing health issues, and supporting treatment decisions.
Types of Gynaecological Ultrasounds
- Transabdominal Ultrasound: An external scan performed by placing a device on the abdomen. This method provides a broader view of the pelvic organs.
- Transvaginal Ultrasound: An internal scan where a small probe is inserted into the vagina to capture more detailed images of the uterus and ovaries.
Why You Might Need a Gynaecological Ultrasound
- Evaluation of pelvic pain or abnormal bleeding
- Monitoring of ovarian cysts, fibroids, or polyps
- Diagnosing conditions such as endometriosis or polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)
- Assessing fertility and monitoring ovulation
- Monitoring early stages of pregnancy
- Detecting abnormalities in the uterus or ovaries
