Transvaginal Ultrasound Scanning (TVS) provides a picture of uterus and ovaries. We can check you for problmes of the ovary and womb which could affect your ability to conceive or carry a pregnancy.

It is also helpful for the following:

• Monitoring for IVF, ICSI or other fertility treatment such as egg donation
  
• Polyps, fibroids and thickness of womb linig (endometrium)
• Ovarian cysts
  
• Amenorrhoea (lack  of or irregular periods)
• Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCO)
• Premature menopause
• Fluid filled damaged fallopian tubes (hydrosalpinx)
  

Ultrasound scans can monitor if the eggs are developing properly and if they are being released from the ovaries. This is called ovarian follicular tracking.

We can also measure ovarian reserve using ultrasound scans of the ovary to count  the number of follicles (egg sacs) within the ovary called AFC (antral follicle count). AFC is highly predictive of the number of eggs that will be collected and the likelihood of success with IVF treatment.

The cost of a Ultrasound scan test is: £150
