Hysteroscopy

  • Amberwell Lansing Clinic, Amberwell Atchison, Amberwell Hiawatha
A hysteroscopy is a minimally invasive procedure that allows a physician to look inside your uterus. This procedure is most commonly used to diagnose and treat causes of abnormal bleeding.

Other Uses for Hysteroscopies

In addition to diagnosing and treating causes of abnormal bleeding in the uterus, a hysteroscopy can also be used to:

  • Identify and remove polyps and fibroids (non-cancerous growths in the uterus)
  • Locate and remove adhesions (scar tissue)
  • Congenital uterine anomalies (problems in the structure of the uterus that are present since birth)

Benefits of Having a Hysteroscopy

Opting for a hysteroscopy can offer several advantages:

  • It’s minimally invasive.
  • It involves no abdominal incisions.
  • It’s the least invasive surgery for poly/fibroid removal.
  • It can sometimes prevent the need for more extensive surgery.
  • Recovery time is usually short.
  • It allows for precise treatment of many uterine conditions.

What to Expect

Procedure Setting: Outpatient

Before: You’ll meet with Dr. Warren and his team to discuss the procedure. You might need to avoid eating or drinking for a short period before your appointment.

During: This procedure is done using anesthesia. A thin, lighted tube called a hysteroscope is inserted into the vagina, through the cervix, and into the uterus. Your doctor will fill the uterus with a liquid to get a clear view. The procedure is done in our operating room and typically takes less than an hour. 

After: Recovery is generally quick. You may experience mild cramping or some spotting for a few days. Most people can return to their normal activities the next day.

Hysteroscopy at Amberwell

When you need a diagnostic or operative hysteroscopy, Amberwell Surgical Care offers safe, effective treatment close to home. This minimally invasive procedure allows our surgical team to evaluate and treat uterine concerns with precision and care—often with a quicker recovery and less discomfort than traditional surgery.

Dr. Warren, a board-certified general surgeon at Amberwell, has experience performing hysteroscopies as part of Amberwell’s comprehensive women’s health services. He works in close partnership with your Amberwell primary care provider to ensure your care is well-coordinated, clearly communicated, and personalized to your health needs. This connection between surgical care and primary care means you benefit from expert treatment and the continued support of a provider who knows your health history.

At Amberwell, we believe in giving women the tools and support they need to feel confident in their care. We’re here to provide guidance, answer your questions, and make sure you feel informed and respected throughout your treatment.
