After you are put to sleep,your gynecologist will gradually dilate your uterine cavity with normal saline using a device called hysteromat. The constant saline instillation distends the uterine cavity and threby allows your surgeon to see inside the cavity. A systematic examination will be done ; your surgeon will try to locate the openings of the fallopian tubes and make sure that they are patent. A panoramic view of the entire cavity is obtained and presence of any fibroids, adhesions or septum is noted.If required, your surgeon will introduce hysteroscopy instruments through the hysteroscopy sheath and perform the required procedure. Once complete, your surgeon withdraws the hysteroscope and proceeds with D and C which is usually combined with it.
