After your consult with Dr Brooke O'Brien, she would recommended treatment and management in the form of a, Hysteroscopy and removal of Polyp. During this procedure Dr O'Brien will use a thin telescope called a hysteroscope is used to examine inside your uterus. Your polyp is then removed, and the hysteroscope is used to check that it has been completely removed. A small sample (biopsy) of your uterine lining is usually also taken. The polyp and endometrial biopsy is sent off to pathology for examination.
Your Hysteroscopyis performed under a light general anaesthetic in hospital as a day case procedure. You should be able to leave the hospital 2-4 hours after your procedure. Generally you can return to normal light duties in 24 hours. A follow up appointment with Dr Brooke O'Brien in our clinic will be organised to discuss the findings and results of your biopsy and pathology.
