At Unittas Hospital, our specialized gynaecological ultrasound services empower accurate diagnosis and personalized care for conditions affecting the uterus, ovaries, fallopian tubes, and surrounding structures.

By harnessing high-frequency sound waves, gynaecological ultrasound provides clear insights into organ size, shape, and function, often guiding treatments or fertility planning.

The Role of Ultrasound in Gynaecological Diagnostics

In gynaecology, ultrasound serves as the first-line imaging tool due to its accessibility and precision. It excels at visualizing soft tissues and fluid-filled structures, making it ideal for assessing hormonal influences on organ development or identifying inflammatory changes.

Our experts at Unittas Hospital use it to evaluate symptoms such as unexplained pain, abnormal uterine bleeding, or fertility challenges, integrating findings with clinical history for comprehensive assessments.

Common applications include:

  • Monitoring endometrial thickness to investigate postmenopausal bleeding
  • Assessing ovarian reserve through antral follicle counts in fertility consultations
  • Guiding minimally invasive procedures like follicle aspirations during IVF cycles
  • Detecting ovarian cysts, fibroids, polyps, and other abnormalities
  • Early pregnancy confirmation and viability assessment
  • PCOS diagnosis and monitoring
  • Endometriosis evaluation
  • IUD position verification

  • Uterine Fibroids: Non-cancerous growths in the uterus
  • Ovarian Cysts: Fluid-filled sacs on the ovaries
  • PCOS: Polycystic ovary syndrome
  • Endometriosis: Tissue growing outside the uterus
  • Adenomyosis: Endometrial tissue in uterine wall
  • Endometrial Polyps: Growths in the uterine lining
  • Ectopic Pregnancy: Pregnancy outside the uterus
  • Uterine Anomalies: Septate, bicornuate uterus
  • Ovarian Cancer Screening: Mass detection
  • Pelvic Inflammatory Disease: Infection assessment

How to Prepare for Your Gynaecological Ultrasound

Preparation depends on the type of scan:

For Transabdominal Ultrasound

Drink 4-6 glasses of water about 1 hour before your appointment to achieve a full bladder. Avoid urinating until after the scan. The full bladder acts as an acoustic window for clearer views.

For Transvaginal Ultrasound

Empty your bladder before the exam. Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothes. No special preparation is needed. The scan is more comfortable with an empty bladder.

General Guidelines

Schedule during days 5-12 of your cycle for best uterine views (unless investigating specific symptoms). Inform your provider about any medications, allergies, or recent procedures.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes transvaginal ultrasound more detailed than transabdominal?

The probe's closer position to pelvic organs reduces interference from skin and fat, yielding sharper images of structures like the endometrium or small cysts. TVS provides 2-3 times better resolution for evaluating ovaries and early pregnancy.

How does ultrasound help with infertility evaluations?

It measures ovarian follicle size and counts antral follicles, providing insights into ovulation patterns and ovarian reserve. Combined with Doppler, it can assess uterine blood flow which affects implantation success.

Is gynaecological ultrasound safe?

Yes, ultrasound uses sound waves (no radiation) and is completely safe for all women, including during pregnancy. It has been used safely in medical imaging for over 50 years with no known harmful effects.

Are results available the same day?

Yes, at Unittas Hospital we provide same-day detailed reports with images. Our specialists review every scan and can discuss findings with you immediately. Digital copies are also sent to your phone or email.
