Infertility sonography, also known as reproductive ultrasound, is a diagnostic tool used to evaluate reproductive organs and diagnose causes of infertility. The procedure uses high-frequency sound waves to create images of the uterus, ovaries, and fallopian tubes, which are then used to assess the condition of the reproductive organs and identify any abnormalities that may be causing infertility.
At Orkid hospital, our infertility sonography services are performed by trained and experienced sonographers who use state-of-the-art ultrasound equipment to produce high-resolution images. The procedure is typically performed on an outpatient basis and does not require any anesthesia.
There are several types of infertility sonography, including:
- Transvaginal ultrasound: A small probe is inserted into the vagina to create images of the uterus and ovaries.
- Transabdominal ultrasound: A transducer is placed on the abdomen to create images of the reproductive organs.
- Hysterosalpingography (HSG): A special dye is injected into the uterus and fallopian tubes, which can be visualized with an X-ray to check for blockages or abnormalities.
Infertility sonography can help diagnose conditions such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), endometriosis, fibroids, and pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), as well as identify problems with ovulation or sperm quality.
