Hysteroscopy this morning!!!
I had both my uterine doppler and Hysteroscopy this morning! Yay! And I "passed" both tests as my nurse says
Uterine Doppler: nurse places a doppler into my vagina to listen for my heart beat; she's listening for clogs in the arteries to make sure there is sufficient blood flow to my uterus. (Says caffeine can constrict blood flow, hence no caffeine 72 hours before procedure) I PASSED! This procedure was painless, just like having a ultrasound, quick and pain free.
Hysteroscopy:
1. Signed a form agreeing to procedure
2. Nurse explained entire procedure from beginning to end
3. Doctor came in, laid back with knees spread apart
4. Placed speculum inside of me (painless)
5. Swabbed my cervix to numb it (painless)
6. Placed a dialator into my cervix to open me up (uncomfortable, but not painful)
7. Placed camera inside my uterus and injected saline into my uterus to expand my uterus (uncomfortable, super crampy but not painful)
8. Showed me my Fallopian tubes, took pictures of the inside of my uterus, no polyps, no fibroids, no scarring! I PASSED yay!
Overall, both procedures combinedtook less than 10 minutes! I didn't take any ibuprofen as recommended since I didn't need it for my HSGc I figured I could deal with it! Now, I'm in the office, back at work yay!
Thanks for reading! Good luck to those of you having your Hysteroscopy later this week!
Cheers!
