Hysteroscopy has been carried out in hospitals, surgical centers and doctors' offices. It is best carried out when the endometrium is relatively thin, that is after a menstruation. Both diagnostic and simple operative hysteroscopy can be carried out in an office or clinic setting on suitably selected patients. Local anesthesia can be used.
Caesarean sections require a large incision of the uterus, which can lead to complications such as blood loss, postoperative pain, anaemia due to continuing blood loss, fever and possible wound infection, breastfeeding issues, difficulty passing urine, future fertility problems, and/or possible complications in future pregnancies including ...
An examination under anesthesia (EUA) may be necessary to exclude a vaginal foreign body or tumor, although instruments designed for office hysteroscopy can sometimes be used in children with topical anesthesia for office vaginoscopy, precluding the need for sedation or general anesthesia and operating room time.

Other treatments target the underlying cause of the hematometra; for example, a hysteroscopy may be required to resect adhesions that have developed following a previous surgery. [1] If the cause of the hematometra is unclear, a biopsy of endometrial tissue can be taken to test for the presence of a neoplasm (cancer). [5]
The size and shape of the uterus will determine how many cycles are required. [10] Water-thermal ablation – For roughly 10 minutes, warm fluid is delivered into the uterus. The uterine lining is destroyed by the heat. This technique has the benefit of being usable in patients who have uteri that are shaped differently due to abnormal tissue ...
The average onset age of menopause after hysterectomy with ovarian conservation is 3.7 years earlier than average. [23] This has been suggested to be due to the disruption of blood supply to the ovaries after a hysterectomy or due to missing endocrine feedback of the uterus.
Menopause itself begins after one’s final menstrual cycle. The transition is never going to be simple or easy for anyone, but it can surely be improved if we rethink classifying the topic as taboo.
Obstetric anesthesia or obstetric anesthesiology, also known as ob-gyn anesthesia or ob-gyn anesthesiology, is a sub-specialty of anesthesiology that provides peripartum (time directly preceding, during or following childbirth) [1] pain relief for labor and anesthesia (suppress consciousness) for cesarean deliveries ('C-sections').
