The lining of the uterus (endometrium) is where the fertilized embryo implants to result in pregnancy.\u00a0 This endometrium must have sufficient blood flow to support pregnancy.\u00a0 Uterine abnormalities (fibroids, polyps \u00a0and intrauterine adhesions) may impact blood flow to and the available surface of endometrium available for implantation.\u00a0 A properly shaped and healthy uterine cavity is a critical factor for achieving and maintaining pregnancy.<\/p>

Successful implantation begins with a structurally normal uterus and a functional endometrial lining that supports embryo attachment and development.<\/p>

When planning for pregnancy, uterine assessment is an essential diagnostic step. It allows us to identify conditions that may cause infertility or contribute to recurrent pregnancy loss. Common uterine factors that may interfere with conception include:<\/strong><\/p>

  • Endometrial polyps<\/li>
  • Submucosal fibroids<\/li>
  • Intrauterine adhesions (Asherman\u2019s syndrome)<\/li>
  • Congenital uterine anomalies, such as a septate uterus<\/li><\/ul>

    Early identification of these conditions can improve treatment outcomes and increase pregnancy success rates.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

    A uterine evaluation may be recommended if you:<\/p>

    • Have been trying to conceive without success<\/li>
    • Have experienced two or more miscarriages<\/li>
    • Have abnormal uterine bleeding, chronic pelvic pain, or known uterine abnormalities<\/li>
    • Are preparing for assisted reproductive treatments like IVF<\/li>
    • Have been diagnosed with fibroids, polyps, adhesions, or congenital anomalies<\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

      • Transvaginal Ultrasound:<\/strong>The initial imaging tool used to assess uterine size, shape, and endometrial lining \u2014 and, when indicated, to detect subtle abnormalities such as uterine septa, adhesions, or congenital malformations.<\/li>
      • Office Hysteroscopy<\/strong> (when needed): A thin camera is inserted through the cervix to directly view the uterine cavity. This procedure is typically done without general anesthesia and may allow minor corrections (e.g., polyp removal) during the same session.<\/li>
      • In some cases, screening tests such as a Pap smear or vaginal smear (bacterioscopy) may also be recommended to check for infections or cellular changes.<\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

        Office hysteroscopy is a modern and minimally invasive method for evaluating the inside of the uterine cavity. It is performed without general anesthesia and is generally painless.<\/p>

        Using a very thin hysteroscope \u2014 a small tube with a camera \u2014 your doctor gently enters the uterine cavity through the cervix. A sterile saline solution is used to expand the cavity for optimal visualization.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

        Office hysteroscopy is typically recommended when ultrasound suggests abnormalities such as:<\/p>

        • Endometrial polyps<\/li>
        • Submucosal fibroids<\/li>
        • Adhesions<\/li>
        • Unclear uterine contour or septum<\/li><\/ul>

          In addition to visual assessment, the procedure may include:<\/strong><\/p>

          • Removal of small polyps<\/strong> (typically up to 3 mm)<\/li>
