This is a diagnostic process to
find out the exact condition of the uterus, tubes and surrounding
structures. This is done with the help of a telescope. The telescope
is inserted into the abdomen through the belly button by a very
small cut and further inserted into the uterus through the neck of
the womb, which is called the cervix. It is done under general
anesthesia.
This is good method of diagnosis as no other investigative tool
(ultrasound, hysterosalpingogram) gives a clearer view than this
endoscopic method. These endoscopic techniques can be used to
correct underlying disorders that can hamper the possibility of a
pregnancy, like, ovarian cyst, endometriosis, adhesions (scar
tissue) in the abdomen hampering tubal function, uterine fibroid,
polyp or scar tissue.
