Pelvic Ultrasound Scan

A Pelvic Scan is a gynaecological Ultrasound assessment of your pelvic organs: womb, lining of the womb, ovaries, fallopian tubes and surrounding structures. This type of scan aims to rule out any structural cause that might explain the symptoms you are experiencing, such as abnormal vaginal bleeding, infrequent periods, difficulty conceiving, recurrent miscarriages, bloating, generalized pelvic pain or any other related issue. If you have family history of any pelvic issues, you may also wish to just have regular check-ups to ensure normal appearances and general structural health of your pelvic organs.

This scan is generally performed in two parts: transabdominally (on top of the tummy) and transvaginally (internal scan), with transvaginal views giving the most details.
