For Women & Couples
What can we do for you?
A transvaginal ultrasound scan is a quick and painless imaging procedure that provides a detailed view of your pelvic organs. It is often used to diagnose conditions or assess symptoms. Your doctor may recommend this procedure during a consultation or fertility treatment.
What is the difference between an external ultrasound and a transvaginal ultrasound?
External ultrasound
During an external ultrasound, a lubricating gel is applied to the skin, and a small handheld probe is used to move over the area of the body being examined.
Transvaginal ultrasound
During a transvaginal ultrasound, a small ultrasound probe with a sterile cover is gently inserted into the vagina, providing detailed images of your uterus and ovaries. While this procedure may cause slight discomfort, it is typically not painful.
When will you need a transvaginal ultrasound?
A transvaginal ultrasound may be prescribed by your doctor to assess your fertility, diagnose issues with your pelvic organs such as the uterus and ovaries, and identify conditions like tumours or fibroids that could affect your fertility. After the scan, your doctor will review the results with you and guide you in exploring your available options.
