The procedure for hysteroscopy is carried out both for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes with the help of a special device - a hysteroscope, which is administered to a woman in the uterine cavity through the vagina.
Can I get pregnant after hysteroscopy?
After hysteroscopy, there should be no obstacles to pregnancy if:
- the procedure was carried out for diagnostic purposes;
- there were no obvious diseases that could themselves prevent pregnancy;
- there were no infectious complications that could affect the patency of the fallopian tubes;
- removal of endometrial polyps or submucosal fibromatous nodes passed without complications.
If the procedure was performed to remove the membranes after miscarriage, the problems of the next pregnancy may be the same as those that led to miscarriage. In this case, a survey is needed to determine the causes of miscarriage, since for those who become pregnant after hysteroscopy, the next pregnancy can also end in miscarriage, as well as the first.
If the procedure was to conduct a medical abortion, then the next pregnancy can be scheduled at the same time as after a regular abortion .
Hysteroscopy - when you can get pregnant?
Hysteroscopy is equated to the first day of menstruation, which means that pregnancy after hysteroscopy may occur even after a month, especially if it was only diagnostic manipulation. However, if you plan, after how many months you can become pregnant, it will be optimal to abstain from pregnancy for half a year. If hysteroscopy was performed about abortion or removal of incomplete miscarriage, and also after small surgical interventions on the uterus with hysteroscopy, you should abstain from pregnancy for about this period.
