Hysteroscopy Overview
Hysteroscopy is a helpful test for women who face issues like irregular bleeding, pain, or fertility challenges. It allows doctors to look inside the uterus and find the cause of the problem.
At Thakral Hospital in Gurgaon, we offer expert hysteroscopy services with a caring team that prioritizes your comfort and well-being at every step.
Hysteroscopy is a window into uterine health, offering clarity and direction for personalized care.
What is a Hysteroscopy?
A hysteroscopy is a medical procedure used to inspect the inside of the uterus. A thin device with a camera, called a hysteroscope, is gently passed through the vagina to allow doctors to view the uterine lining on a screen.
- To find out why bleeding is heavy or irregular
- To investigate fertility problems
- To check for fibroids, polyps, or other growths
- To identify any scars or abnormal tissue
- To guide treatments with clear visuals
Hysteroscopy is a minimally invasive procedure and typically does not require stitches or a hospital stay.
Why Do Some Women Need a Hysteroscopy?
- Unusually heavy or prolonged periods
- Spotting or bleeding between cycles
- Difficulty in conceiving
- Multiple miscarriages
- Painful menstrual cramps or pelvic pain
- Detection of fibroids, polyps, or scar tissue

Hysteroscopy helps identify the underlying causes and supports more accurate treatment planning.
