Transvaginal and abdoinal scan??

Hiya ladies im going for a transvaginal scan and abdominal scan on wednesday 5th oct to assess for PCOS, finally ive waited ages for this investigation to be done.



We have been TTC for over 3 years and our consultant is a waste of space really lol



can anyone offer any advice on what to expect? also can you have the scans etc whilst on your period? she arrived today!!! image

  • Yep, same here. The probe (bad word for it, I know!) is smaller than most men's "unmentionables"! but has a bulbous bit at the end and didn't hurt at all. The consultant did my first one and showed me what was there and ultrasound technicians/nurses have done my other ones (follicle tracking for clomid / post-ov drilling). Good luck!
  • thank you for your replies ladies!

    after have the other dye test and smears done, im not worried about this one really lol.

    Just worried that AF is here and full flow today, v painful too image



    it cant be nice for the person doing the test really!!
  • Hmmm, must be a bit gross- but I bet they're used to it, and probably seen much worse!
