In-Office Surgeries Q&A

What Is Abnormal Uterine Bleeding?

Abnormal uterine bleeding refers to:

  • Heavy menstrual bleeding
  • Irregular periods
  • Bleeding between cycles
  • Postmenopausal bleeding

One of the most common causes of AUB is endometrial polyps, which are benign growths arising from the uterine lining.

What Is Office Hysteroscopy?

Office hysteroscopy is a diagnostic and therapeutic procedure that allows direct visualization of the uterine cavity using a thin, lighted camera inserted through the cervix. Unlike traditional surgery, it is:

  • Minimally invasive
  • Performed in the office
  • Quick and well tolerated

This “see and treat” approach improves accuracy and reduces the need for multiple procedures.

What Is the MyoSure System?

The MyoSure tissue removal system is an advanced device used during hysteroscopy to precisely remove:

  • Endometrial polyps
  • Small submucosal fibroids
  • Thickened endometrial tissue

MyoSure removes abnormal tissue while preserving healthy uterine lining, making it an excellent option for women who wish to maintain fertility.

Benefits of Office Hysteroscopy with MyoSure

  • No general anesthesia required
  • Short procedure time (10–20 minutes)
  • Minimal discomfort
  • Same-day recovery
  • High success rate for symptom relief
  • Accurate removal under direct vision

Who Is a Candidate?

Office hysteroscopy with MyoSure is suitable for women with:

  • Thickened endometrium on ultrasound
  • Infertility related to uterine cavity abnormalities

  • Little to no bleeding afterward
  • No stitches or incisions
  • Return to normal activities the same or next day
