Indications for Hysteroscopy:

1. Abnormal Uterine Bleeding: Hysteroscopy may be recommended for women experiencing abnormal uterine bleeding, such as heavy or prolonged menstrual periods, postmenopausal bleeding, or irregular bleeding between periods.
2. Evaluation of Infertility: Hysteroscopy can be used to evaluate the uterine cavity for abnormalities that may contribute to infertility, such as uterine polyps, fibroids, adhesions (scar tissue), or congenital uterine anomalies.
3. Recurrent Miscarriages: Women who have experienced recurrent miscarriages may undergo hysteroscopy to assess for uterine abnormalities that could increase the risk of miscarriage, such as septate uterus or intrauterine adhesions.
4. Diagnostic Evaluation: Hysteroscopy is used as a diagnostic tool to investigate the cause of symptoms such as pelvic pain, abnormal Pap smear results, or suspected uterine abnormalities detected on imaging studies.
5. Treatment of Uterine Abnormalities: In addition to diagnosis, hysteroscopy allows for the treatment of certain uterine abnormalities. Procedures such as removal of polyps, fibroids, or intrauterine adhesions can be performed during hysteroscopy, often without the need for a separate surgical incision.
6. Endometrial Biopsy: During hysteroscopy, Dr. Nirmala Murthy may obtain a biopsy (tissue sample) from the lining of the uterus (endometrium) for further evaluation if abnormal tissue is detected.
