Sonography

🩻 Sonography in Infertility Evaluation

Sonography (Ultrasound Scan) is a vital and non-invasive diagnostic tool used to evaluate reproductive organs in both men and women. At Phular IVF Hospital, Muzaffarpur, high-resolution ultrasound technology helps our fertility experts assess ovarian function, uterine structure, and follicle development β€” essential steps in understanding and treating infertility.

Sonography

πŸ”¬ What is Sonography?

Sonography (also called an Ultrasound Scan) uses high-frequency sound waves to produce detailed images of the reproductive organs. It helps visualize the uterus, ovaries, endometrial lining, and follicles. In men, it can evaluate the testicles, epididymis, and prostate for possible abnormalities.

πŸ“‹ Types of Sonography in Fertility Care

  • 1. Transvaginal Ultrasound: A detailed internal scan that provides clear images of the uterus, endometrium, and ovaries β€” crucial for tracking ovulation and follicle growth.
  • 2. Abdominal Ultrasound: Performed through the abdomen; used for general assessment of pelvic structures.
  • 3. Follicular Monitoring: Series of ultrasounds during a woman’s cycle to monitor egg growth and timing of ovulation.
  • 4. Sonohysterography (SIS): Saline is introduced into the uterus to detect fibroids, polyps, or adhesions.
  • 5. Doppler Ultrasound: Measures blood flow to ovaries, uterus, and testicles to assess organ health and function.
  • 6. Scrotal Ultrasound (for Men): Evaluates testicular structure, varicocele, or blockages in sperm ducts.

πŸ‘©β€βš•οΈ Why Sonography is Important in Infertility Workup

Sonography provides real-time insights into reproductive health without radiation or pain. It helps fertility specialists:

  • Track ovulation and follicle size during the menstrual cycle
  • Detect ovarian cysts, PCOS, or endometriosis
  • Examine uterine lining thickness for embryo implantation
  • Identify fibroids, polyps, or congenital uterine abnormalities
  • Guide fertility treatments like IUI and IVF procedures

βš™οΈ How the Procedure is Done

  • 1. Preparation: Usually requires a full bladder for abdominal scans; no special prep for transvaginal scans.
  • 2. Duration: The test typically takes 10–20 minutes and is completely painless.
  • 3. Performed By: Expert radiologists and fertility specialists at Phular IVF Hospital.
  • 4. Results: Available immediately for discussion with the doctor.

πŸ“… When Should You Get a Sonography Done?

  • Irregular menstrual cycles or painful periods
  • Difficulty in conceiving for more than 6–12 months
  • Known PCOS or endometriosis
  • Before fertility procedures like IUI or IVF
  • To monitor ovarian stimulation during IVF treatment
