Infertility is a medical condition that affects many people around the world. Diagnostic procedures are an essential component in understanding and diagnosing infertility, as well as in designing appropriate treatment plans for it. Through diagnostic tests, Dr. Manisha Risbud can uncover important information about the underlying causes of infertility, identify any potential fertility issues, and be able to develop a tailored plan of action for each individual patient.
Tests for understanding infertility include physical exams and laboratory tests, as well as more specialized diagnostic procedures.
The decision to use a particular procedure for diagnosis is based on the individual patient’s fertility issues. Tests such as blood work, ultrasounds, and hormone levels can help indicate which procedure may be the most beneficial in identifying the cause of infertility. Depending on the results of these tests, Dr. Manisha Risbud will decide if hysteroscopy, laparoscopy or transvaginal ultrasound is the best procedure to use for diagnosis. Additionally, any patient-specific symptoms and risk factors identified during a physical examination may also influence the decision on which diagnostic procedure to use.
Hysteroscopy is a minimally invasive procedure used to diagnose and evaluate any potential causes of infertility in women. During this procedure, a thin tube with a camera attached (hysteroscope) is inserted through the cervix into the uterus. The hysteroscope can be used to look inside the uterus and detect any visible abnormalities such as fibroids, polyps, adhesions or any structural issues that could interfere with pregnancy.
Laparoscopy is a surgical procedure used to assess and diagnose infertility issues. During the procedure, small incisions are made in the abdomen, through which a thin, flexible instrument (laparoscope) is inserted. The laparoscope allows doctors to get an up close view of the reproductive organs such as the fallopian tubes, ovaries, and uterus. It can evaluate for conditions such as endometriosis, ovarian cysts, or pelvic adhesions that may interfere with fertility.
The main difference between hysteroscopy and laparoscopy is the area of the body being examined. Hysteroscopy involves inserting a thin, lighted tube into the uterus to examine it for abnormalities. Laparoscopy involves making small incisions in the abdomen and using a flexible instrument (laparoscope) to look at reproductive organs such as the fallopian tubes, ovaries, and uterus.
Ovulation Monitoring is another diagnostic procedure used to assess and diagnose female fertility. It involves using transvaginal ultrasound, which is a probe inserted into the vagina to obtain detailed images of the reproductive organs. This allows for tracking a woman’s menstrual cycle and accurately determining the timing of ovulation, monitoring follicle development, and identifying any abnormalities in the ovaries or uterus. This helps to assess fertility issues and can also be used to evaluate the effectiveness of certain treatments. The benefits of using transvaginal ultrasound for ovulation monitoring include being able to accurately determine the timing of ovulation, monitor follicle development, and identify any abnormalities in the reproductive organs.
After the evaluation process, Dr. Manisha Risbud will provide feedback on the diagnostic results and discuss the implications of these findings. The results will be used to guide the development of a personalized treatment plan tailored to each individual patient’s needs and goals. Potential treatments may be recommended based on the diagnosis include ovulation induction with fertility medications, intrauterine insemination (IUI), or in vitro fertilization (IVF). Dr. Manisha Risbud will explain the benefits, risks and potential success rates associated with each treatment option. The patient may then decide on which course of action to take based on their individual circumstances, values, and preferences.
