Medical Conditions - Transvaginal Ultrasound

A transvaginal ultrasound is a medical imaging procedure commonly used to examine the female reproductive organs, including the uterus, ovaries, and cervix. During the procedure, a specially designed ultrasound probe is inserted into the vagina. This probe emits high-frequency sound waves that bounce off the pelvic organs and create detailed images on a monitor. Transvaginal ultrasounds are often used in gynecology to diagnose conditions such as ovarian cysts, uterine fibroids, or abnormal bleeding. They are also essential during early pregnancy to confirm gestational age, monitor fetal development, and detect any potential complications.
