Hysteroscopy for Abnormal Vaginal Bleeding
What happens right after the procedure?
Recovery usually takes less than 2 hours.
Results will vary according to the findings.
If a uterine polyp or fibroid was removed, symptoms of abnormal bleeding generally improve. They may recur if the base of the polyp or fibroid was not completely removed.
If precancerous changes in the uterine lining were diagnosed, further treatment with high-dose progestins or hysterectomy may be needed.
The results and findings will be discussed during a follow-up visit in the healthcare provider's office.
