Hysteroscopy

Edit to add: I think I’m going to have to reschedule.. my period absolutely hates me🙄 Has anyone had a hysteroscopy before? What do I need to expect? I am having one done this Friday!

Thank you Lottie. So one cycle wasted, I was worried that there is more abstinence time to follow. That’s sad, I’m sorry for you guys;(

I was told to wait at least a week before having sex incase of infection. Unfortunately I didn't get pregnant after having it done but we do have a male factor issue.

I’m having one in 3 months. How is it afterwards, can you start trying for a baby right away? Thanks for information about the pain, in Germany I will get a narcosis.

I had so much anxiety before mine but I was given pain meds and anti anxiety medication and it helped a lot, after it you will bleed a little and may have slight cramping but nothing crazy, it honestly wasn’t as bad as I thought. I think it’s true your chances for getting pregnant after this

It was quite painful in my opinion. If allowed, I would take something before the procedure. The pain is brief but it’s def one of those moment where you wonder why anesthetic isn’t an option. However, I have heard many people getting pregnant after this naturally. Almost as though it clears it all out. Even the radiology techs said the chances increase. Good luck!

I've had one...I'm in the UK so they didn't offer any anesthetic or pain relief so it was extremely painful...however if you have anesthetic I doubt you'll feel a thing. They fill the uterus with saline and then insert a small camera into your uterus. My cervix felt a bit sore and was leaky afterwards due to the saline but after a few days it was ok 🙂
