Female Examinations
Blood Test
–On day 2 or 3 of menstruation, blood tests are arranged for the female patient to check hormones related to ovulation and ovarian function, such as Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH), Luteinizing Hormone (LH), Estradiol (E2), Prolactin, Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH), Testosterone, Anti-Mullerian Hormone (AMH), etc. Depending on the patient’s condition, the physician in charge may request for other blood tests for evaluation.
Hysterosalpingography
–On day 8 or 9 of the menstrual cycle, after the menstrual bleeding stops and prior to ovulation, a hysterosalpingography (HSG) is arranged to check for patency of the fallopian tubes and for any possible uterine malformations.
Ultrasound
–Women with regular menstrual periods expected to ovulate on day 14 of the cycle are arranged to have a pelvic ultrasound to check for any possible uterine or ovarian tumors. If ovulation is ascertained by the ultrasound, couples are arranged to have intercourse. Depending on personal circumstances, the physician in charge may suggest to have a hysteroscopy or laparoscopy for the female patient.
Hysteroscopy (HSC)
The procedure is used to examine the womb. It is usually carried out on an outpatient or day-case basis, meaning the patient does not have to stay in the hospital overnight. During the procedure we might remove scar tissue from the uterus of if we find polyps and would remove it and check pathology to get precise diagnosis.
