Fertility Enhancing Endoscopic Surgeries
Endoscopy is a minimally invasive procedure that involves introducing a thin optical tube attached with camera (Endoscope) through a natural hole or a small incision to view the inside of an organ or cavity.
In evaluation of female reproductive system, where the endoscope is introduced inside the abdomen to diagnose and treat pathologies related to uterus, ovaries and fallopian tubes, it is called Laparoscopy. Hysteroscopy is to evaluate or correct pathologies of uterine cavity where the endoscope is inserted through vagina. The advantages of endoscopic procedure are:
- Smaller scars
- Faster recovery
- Shorter hospital stay
- Minimal side effects
