Diagnostic & Operative Hysteroscopy in Jaipur

Advanced Uterine Evaluation & Treatment by Dr. Sapna Basandani

Expert Hysteroscopy for Female Infertility at Anmol Fertility Center

A healthy uterus is essential for successful conception and pregnancy. Conditions such as uterine polyps, fibroids, adhesions, or congenital abnormalities can interfere with implantation and increase the risk of miscarriage. Diagnostic and Operative Hysteroscopy is a minimally invasive procedure that allows fertility specialists to examine the inside of the uterus and, when necessary, treat abnormalities during the same procedure.

At Anmol Fertility Center, Jaipur, Dr. Sapna Basandani offers advanced hysteroscopy services using state-of-the-art equipment to diagnose and treat uterine conditions, helping improve fertility outcomes and overall reproductive health.


What is Diagnostic Hysteroscopy?

Diagnostic Hysteroscopy is a minimally invasive procedure used to examine the inside of the uterus (uterine cavity) using a thin, lighted telescope called a hysteroscope. The hysteroscope is gently inserted through the cervix, allowing the fertility specialist to directly visualize the uterine cavity without making any abdominal incisions.

Diagnostic hysteroscopy helps identify conditions that may affect fertility, implantation, menstrual health, or recurrent pregnancy loss.


What is Operative Hysteroscopy?

Operative Hysteroscopy is performed when an abnormality is identified during diagnostic evaluation or imaging. Specialized surgical instruments are passed through the hysteroscope to remove or correct uterine abnormalities without the need for open surgery.

This minimally invasive approach allows diagnosis and treatment to be completed in a single procedure in many cases.


Who Needs Diagnostic or Operative Hysteroscopy?

Your fertility specialist may recommend hysteroscopy if you have:

  • Unexplained infertility
  • Recurrent miscarriage
  • Repeated IVF implantation failure
  • Abnormal uterine bleeding
  • Heavy menstrual bleeding
  • Irregular menstrual cycles
  • Uterine polyps
  • Submucosal fibroids
  • Intrauterine adhesions (Asherman’s Syndrome)
  • Congenital uterine abnormalities
  • Thickened endometrium
  • Retained products of conception
  • Suspected uterine septum

Conditions Treated with Operative Hysteroscopy

Operative hysteroscopy can effectively diagnose and treat:

Uterine Polyps

Removal of endometrial polyps that may interfere with implantation.

Submucosal Fibroids

Removal of fibroids located inside the uterine cavity that can affect fertility and menstrual health.

Uterine Septum

Correction of congenital uterine abnormalities that may contribute to infertility or recurrent miscarriage.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is hysteroscopy painful?
