Hysteroscopy may be performed in women who have abnormal bleeding or postmenopausal bleeding. It may be used to help diagnose causes of infertility or repeated miscarriages. Hysteroscopy may also be used to evaluate uterine adhesions (Asherman’s syndrome), polyps, and fibroids, and to locate and remove displaced intrauterine devices (IUDs).
Therapeutically, hysteroscopy may be used to help correct uterine problems. For example, some fibroids, polyps, uterine septums or adhesions may be removed through the hysteroscope, often eliminating the need for more invasive surgery. Endometrial biopsy or ablation (removal of the endometrial lining) may be performed via hysteroscopy.
There may be other reasons for a physician to recommend a hysteroscopy.
