When is Hysteroscopy Surgery Indicated?

Hysteroscopy surgery is indicated when diagnosing or treating various uterine conditions. Such as

• Management of persistent uterine bleeding despite conventional therapies.

• Investigation of infertility when other tests yield inconclusive results.

• Identification and management of suspected intrauterine abnormalities such as polyps, fibroids, or adhesions.

• Evaluation of abnormal imaging findings, including those from ultrasound scans.

• Placement or removal of intrauterine devices (IUDs) as required.

• Diagnosis and treatment of conditions like endometrial hyperplasia or uterine septum.

• Monitoring or treatment of intrauterine lesions or tumors, as well as assessing uterine cavity prior to procedures like IVF or endometrial ablation.

The Process of Hysteroscopy Surgery

Hysteroscopy is a surgical procedure that uses a slender, illuminated device (hysteroscope) to enter the uterus through the vaginal canal and cervix. This instrument allows doctors to diagnose and treat various uterine problems.

• Preparation: During the procedure, the patient may be given anesthesia to reduce any pain or discomfort. The cervix, the lower part of the uterus, is then gently widened to create an opening large enough to insert the hysteroscopy.

• Insertion of Hysteroscopy: The hysteroscopy is gently inserted through the vagina and cervix into the uterus.

• Examination: During the procedure, the surgeon uses a hysteroscopy, a small camera inserted into the uterus. Images captured by the hysteroscopy are displayed on a screen, allowing the surgeon to examine the inside of the uterus.

• Diagnosis: During the evaluation, any unusual findings, including polyps, fibroids, adhesions, or other medical conditions, are carefully noted and recorded for further analysis.

• Treatment: The specific procedures performed during a medical session depend on the results of the examination. These procedures can include removing growths (such as polyps or fibroids), releasing adhesions that connect tissues, or inserting contraceptives.

• Completion: After all essential tasks are finished, the hysteroscopy is taken out. The patient is then closely observed for a brief time before they are allowed to leave.

Recovery Timeline Following Hysteroscopy Surgery

Following hysteroscopy, patients generally go through a phased recovery that involves different healing stages. Knowing this timeline helps them plan for post-surgery care and track their progress as they get back to their daily routines.

Immediate Post-Operative Period (0-24 hours):

• Patients may experience mild cramping, spotting, or vaginal discharge immediately after hysteroscopy surgery.

• Rest and hydration are important during this period to aid recovery and alleviate discomfort.

• It's advisable to avoid strenuous activities and refrain from driving until the effects of anesthesia wear off.

First Few Days (1-7 days):

• Mild cramping and spotting may persist for a few days post-surgery, but should gradually diminish.

• Patients are encouraged to rest and avoid heavy lifting or vigorous exercise to prevent strain on the abdominal muscles.

• Pain medication prescribed by the surgeon can help manage any discomfort, and it's essential to follow post-operative care instructions diligently.

One to Two Weeks:

• Most patients can return to normal daily activities within one to two weeks, depending on individual recovery progress.

• Follow-up appointments with the surgeon may be scheduled to monitor healing and address any concerns.

• While some patients may resume light exercise, it's important to avoid activities that could potentially disrupt healing or cause discomfort.

Long-Term Recovery (Two Weeks Onward):

• Full recovery from hysteroscopy surgery typically takes several weeks, with most patients experiencing a gradual improvement in symptoms and overall well-being.

• Full recovery from hysteroscopy surgery typically takes several weeks, with most patients experiencing a gradual improvement in symptoms and overall well-being.

• Contact the surgeon if any unusual symptoms or complications arise during the recovery period, such as persistent pain, fever, excessive bleeding, or signs of infection.

Ideal Candidate for Hysteroscopy

Dr. Ankita Kaushal, an experienced gynecologist, highlights the importance of hysteroscopy surgery as an effective treatment option for gynecological issues such as irregular bleeding, difficulty conceiving, and potential abnormalities in the uterus.

• Heavy or Irregular Menstrual Bleeding: If traditional remedies don't relieve excessive or unpredictable menstrual bleeding, hysteroscopy enables doctors to see inside the uterus directly. This helps them find and treat problems like growths (polyps or fibroids) or scar tissue that may be causing the bleeding.

• Infertility Diagnosis: For infertility cases where standard tests haven't given clear answers, hysteroscopy is a useful procedure. It helps doctors look inside the uterus to check for problems that might make getting pregnant difficult. These problems could include scar tissue or blockages in the uterus, or even a physical separation in the uterus called a septum.

• Diagnosis and Treatment of Uterine Conditions: Dr. Kaushal emphasizes the importance of hysteroscopy in both diagnosing and treating various conditions affecting the uterus. This procedure allows for the detection and management of conditions such as endometrial hyperplasia and uterine septum, which can impact fertility. Hysteroscopy also plays a crucial role in monitoring and treating intrauterine lesions or tumors, helping to guide treatment decisions and enhance reproductive health outcomes.

• 1. Diagnostic Hysteroscopy:

  Purpose: To diagnose and evaluate the cause of abnormal uterine bleeding, infertility, recurrent miscarriages, or other uterine abnormalities.

  Procedure: Involves the insertion of a hysteroscope through the cervix into the uterus to visually inspect the uterine cavity.

• 2. Operative Hysteroscopy:

  Purpose: To correct or treat identified issues during a diagnostic hysteroscopy. It involves the use of specialized instruments to perform procedures within the uterus.

  Procedures: Subtypes include

  Polypectomy: Removal of uterine polyps.

  Myomectomy: Removal of uterine fibroids.

  Septoplasty: Correction of a uterine septum (a wall-like structure inside the uterus).

  Endometrial Ablation: Destruction of the uterine lining to treat heavy menstrual bleeding.

• 3. Hysteroscopic Sterilization:

  Purpose: To achieve permanent sterilization by placing small implants (usually coils) in the fallopian tubes, causing scar tissue formation and blockage.

  Procedure: The hysteroscope is used to guide the placement of the sterilization device.

• 4. Hysteroscopic Adhesiolysis:

  Purpose: To break down and remove adhesions (scar tissue) within the uterine cavity, often caused by previous surgeries, infections, or trauma.

  Procedure: Involves the use of hysteroscopic instruments to cut or dissolve adhesions.

• 5. Hysteroscopic Tubal Cannulation:

  Purpose: To open blocked fallopian tubes by using a hysteroscope to guide a catheter through the tubes, usually in cases of tubal blockage causing infertility.

  Procedure: A catheter or guide wire is passed through the hysteroscope to open the fallopian tubes.
