The hysteroscopic evaluation will include assessment of the cervical canal, intrauterine lesions, the endometrium and the uterotubal junction. .

If hysteroscopy reveal a lesion, its type, size, location will be recorded. Transvaginal ultrasound will be done after the procedure to detect fluid in the douglas pouch to confirm patent tubes.

Asses the uterine scar in details.

A speculum is first inserted into the vagina. The hysteroscope is then inserted and gently moved through the cervix into uterus. Carbon dioxide gas or a fluid, such as saline will be put through the hysteroscope into uterus to expand it. The gas or fluid helps see the lining more clearly. The amount of fluid used is carefully checked throughout the procedure
