Understanding hysteroscopy
Hysteroscopy is a minimally invasive procedure that helps diagnose and treat issues inside the uterus.
The involves inserting a thin, lighted tube (hysteroscope) through the vagina and cervix into the uterus to diagnose or treat concerns such as abnormal bleeding, fibroids, polyps, adhesions, and infertility-related concerns.
Types of hysteroscopy:
Operative hysteroscopy:
Performed to correct uterine conditions, such as removing fibroids, polyps, or adhesions. Small surgical instruments are inserted through the hysteroscope to carry out the necessary treatment.
Diagnostic hysteroscopy:
Helps in evaluating uterine conditions, especially in cases of abnormal bleeding, recurrent miscarriages, or unexplained infertility.

What to expect during a hysteroscopy in Dubai
Before the procedure:
Dr. Marwa may advise you to avoid eating or drinking for a few hours beforehand. Depending on your condition, local or general anesthesia may be used.
During the procedure:
- A speculum may be inserted into your vagina to gently hold it open, just like in a cervical screening test. However, this step is not always necessary.
- A hysteroscope will be inserted through the cervix into the uterus. A sterile fluid is gently pumped inside to expand the uterine cavity and improve visibility.
- The hysteroscope’s camera transmits high-definition images to a monitor, allowing the examination of the uterus for abnormalities.
- If needed, small surgical instruments can be passed through the hysteroscope to remove fibroids, polyps, or scar tissue.
- The entire procedure generally takes 15-30 minutes, depending on whether it is diagnostic or operative.
After the procedure:
- Most patients experience little to no discomfort and can return home the same day.
- Mild cramping or spotting is common for a few days.
- Dr. Marwa may provide specific post-procedure care instructions, including pain management and activity restrictions, if necessary.
- If any tissue samples were taken, a follow-up appointment is scheduled.
