If you are experiencing abnormal uterine bleeding or have concerns about your fertility, hysteroscopy lets your doctor look directly inside your uterus to find and often treat the cause. Parency IVF Hospital offers diagnostic and operative hysteroscopy in Bangalore, and our specialists help you understand the procedure, its benefits and the treatment options that suit your individual needs.
Hysteroscopy is a minimally invasive procedure used to examine the inside of the uterus with a thin, lighted telescope called a hysteroscope, which is passed through the vagina and cervix. It allows your doctor to look for uterine problems that may cause symptoms such as abnormal bleeding or difficulty conceiving. Diagnostic hysteroscopy is used to find the problem, while operative hysteroscopy treats certain conditions during the same procedure, depending on the findings and your clinical needs.
Hysteroscopy is used to diagnose and treat conditions that cause abnormal uterine bleeding, heavy periods, spotting between periods and bleeding after menopause. It is also a common part of a fertility assessment when other tests suggest a problem inside the uterus.

Here’s what to expect during a hysteroscopy in Bangalore at Parency IVF:
Before the Procedure: You may be given medicine to help you relax, and local or general anaesthesia may be used depending on the type of hysteroscopy. Medicine may also be applied to the cervix to help it open gently.
During the Procedure: A speculum is placed in the vagina, and the hysteroscope is passed through the cervix into the uterus. Carbon dioxide gas or fluid is gently introduced to expand the uterus for a clearer view, and images of the uterine lining and the openings of the fallopian tubes are shown on a screen. In diagnostic hysteroscopy, your doctor checks these images for any abnormalities. In operative hysteroscopy, fine instruments are passed through the hysteroscope to remove polyps, fibroids or adhesions. A small tissue sample (biopsy) may also be taken if needed.
How Long It Takes: As the NHS guide to hysteroscopy notes, the procedure usually takes between 5 and 30 minutes. You may feel mild, period-like cramping during and for a short time afterwards.
The hysteroscopy cost in Bangalore ranges from approximately ₹10,000 to ₹50,000, depending on the type of procedure and the treatment required.
