Hysteroscopy is a cutting-edge, minimally invasive procedure revolutionizing the diagnosis and treatment of various gynecological conditions. It allows gynecologists to examine the inside of the uterus using a thin, lighted tube called a hysteroscope, offering unparalleled precision, minimal recovery time, and same-day discharge. At City Fertility Centre, Pune, Dr. Gopalkrishna Gawade, a renowned advanced laparoscopic gynecologist with over 15 years of experience, specializes in these procedures, ensuring optimal outcomes for his patients.

Hysteroscopy is a diagnostic and therapeutic tool performed to evaluate and treat conditions affecting the uterus. It is typically carried out as an outpatient procedure, ensuring convenience and minimal disruption to daily life.
- Uterine Polyps- These are overgrowths of the endometrial tissue that can cause irregular menstrual bleeding and infertility. Hysteroscopy enables precise removal of polyps without affecting surrounding tissue.
- Uterine Fibroids – Submucosal fibroids, which grow inside the uterine cavity, can cause heavy bleeding, pain, and infertility. Hysteroscopic myomectomy allows their removal with minimal blood loss.
- Intrauterine Adhesions (Asherman’s Syndrome) – Scar tissue formation inside the uterus can result in reduced menstrual flow or infertility. Hysteroscopy is the gold standard for diagnosing and treating these adhesions.
- Septate Uterus – A congenital anomaly where a fibrous band divides the uterus, potentially causing recurrent pregnancy loss. Hysteroscopic metroplasty effectively corrects this condition.
- Abnormal Uterine Bleeding – For patients experiencing unexplained heavy or irregular bleeding, hysteroscopy can help identify and treat the underlying cause, such as polyps, fibroids, or endometrial hyperplasia.
- Endometrial Biopsy or Sampling – Hysteroscopy is used to obtain targeted biopsies of the uterine lining, aiding in the diagnosis of conditions like endometrial hyperplasia or cancer.
- Retained Products of Conception (RPOC) – Post-pregnancy tissue remnants can lead to complications like infection or bleeding. Hysteroscopy offers a safe and efficient method for removal.
- Removal of Foreign Bodies – Intrauterine devices (IUDs) or other foreign objects can sometimes migrate or get embedded in the uterus. Hysteroscopy facilitates safe removal.
- Endometrial Ablation – This procedure is used to treat heavy menstrual bleeding in women who are not planning to have more children. Hysteroscopy ensures precise ablation of the endometrial lining.
Laparoscopic hysterectomy is a minimally invasive procedure where small incisions are made, and a camera is used to guide the surgery. It offers numerous advantages over traditional open surgery:
- Smaller Incisions: Leads to minimal scarring and faster healing.
- Reduced Pain: Less post-operative pain compared to open surgery.
- Shorter Hospital Stay: Most patients go home within 24-48 hours.
- Faster Recovery: Return to daily activities within 2-4 weeks.
- Lower Risk of Infection: Smaller incisions reduce the chance of infection.
- Minimally Invasive: No large incisions, leading to faster recovery.
- Same-Day Discharge: Most patients can return home within hours of the procedure.
- Enhanced Accuracy: Direct visualization ensures precise diagnosis and treatment.
- Reduced Recovery Time: Patients can resume normal activities in a day or two.
- Improved Fertility: Correcting structural abnormalities improves the chances of conception.
- Fewer Complications: Reduced risk of infection and other surgical complications.
- Enhanced Precision: High-definition cameras provide better visualization for the surgeon.
- Preservation of Surrounding Tissues: Minimizes trauma to nearby organs and tissues.
- Quick Return to Routine Life: Patients recover faster and can resume work and daily activities sooner.
- Cost-Effective in the Long Run: Shorter hospital stays and faster recovery reduce overall costs.
