What is Transvaginal Ultrasound?
A transvaginal ultrasound (TVS) is a safe, radiation-free scan that gives a clear view of your uterus, ovaries, and cervix. A thin, lubricated probe is gently placed in the vagina, giving sharper images than an abdominal scan. It takes 10 to 20 minutes and causes only mild pressure, not pain, for most women. It helps check egg reserve, track ovulation, assess the uterine lining, and find fibroids, polyps, cysts, or PCOS. At Vardaan, it's part of every infertility assessment led by a Fertility Specialist Doctor in Jalandhar and Amritsar.
How to Prepare for a Transvaginal Ultrasound?
- Comfortable clothing: Daily hormone injections for 8–12 days help the ovaries produce multiple mature eggs, monitored through ultrasound and blood tests.
- Empty bladder: Pass urine just before the scan.
- Periods are fine: Just remove any tampon before the scan.
- Period date: Note the first day of your last period.
- Latex allergy: Tell your doctor so a latex-free cover can be used.
- Old reports: Bring your previous scans to compare results.
