Transvaginal Ultrasonography is a very useful tool to diagnose and manage infertility. It helps to diagnose problems in the uterus such as a thin endometrium, intrauterine adhesions, endometrial polyp, sub mucous fibroid, uterine septum, arcuate or subseptate uterus.
Also, color Doppler would show the blood flow to the uterus and help in the timing of the embryo transfer and predict the chances of pregnancy. Also, TVS can diagnose problems with the fallopian tube if a hydrosalpinx is seen (indicative of a blocked tube) and diagnose ovarian conditions such as ovarian simple cyst, endometriosis (chocolate cyst) and other such pelvic pathologies. It is possible to predict the nature of the lesion as to whether it is benign or malignant in nature and whether any surgical correction is required for the same.
With this kind of detailed evaluation it is possible to avoid unnecessary hysteroscopies and laparoscopies before proceeding with IVF. The Gynaeworld tries to avoid unnecessary surgical procedures.
TVS is also the main tool for interventional surgical work such as oocyte retrieval (egg recovery) for IVF and ICSI.
We also offer TVS ultrasonography for monitoring of early pregnancy, diagnosing twins, and presence of a tubal pregnancy or complications such as ovarian cyst, hyperstimulation, ascites and ovarian torsion for our pregnant patients.
