My Total Vaginal Hysterectomy – Sangita ’ s Story
I was going through the menopause for the last 2 years with no real problems and am 50 years old. Then in February I went to the Dr’s because my stomach started to feel huge and was sent for scan. My scan revealed the lining of the womb was usually thick for someone who was menopausal and was told I had a fibriod and had to see a gnecologist. Just before my appointment I had a really heavy bleed completely out if the blue.
My gynaecologist arranged a biopsy and hysteroscopy to rule out cancer. I was so scared and waiting for the results was a nightmare I kept thinking cancer all the time. Thank god my result was all ...

Women given pointless and expensive checks before IVF, warn doctors
A study at London's Guy's and St Thomas's found that having a hysteroscopy to check the womb before fertility treatment makes no difference to success rates. (Source: the Mail online | Health)

Efficacy doubts over pre-IVF hysteroscopy
A large multicenter trial seems finally to have resolved one of IVF's long-running controversies -- whether the outlook for women with a poor IVF record can be improved by routine hysteroscopy performed before further IVF treatment. Only around 1/3 of IVF cycles achieve a pregnancy, and unsuccessful attempts can usually be explained by embryonic or uterine factors. As a result, hysteroscopy is performed in many clinics before further attempts to visualize the surface of the uterus and operatively remove any abnormal growths if found.

Not Prepared For Hysterectomy – Jan ’ s Story
Hi everyone. My name is Jan and I had a hysterectomy in 2014. Since 1998 I had a history of abnormal cervical smears which were treated in different ways many times. During that period I also had VAIN 2 pre-cancerous cells in the vagina. I have had bleeding in the urine from sept 2013 and was told it was looking like bladder cancer and was kept in hospital and underwent several tests. It wasn’t thank God. no reason for bleed given. Then as I still had abdominal pain and a history of ovarian cancer with grandmother they investigated me for possible ovarian cancer. Transvaginal scan ok and ultrasound fine. Then they in...

Tubal Ligation and Resection
Tubal Ligation by Parkland and Irving Methods
Parkland tubal ligation
Parkland Tubal Ligation
The Parkland tubal ligation technique falls into the category of tubal ligation and resection. The Parkland procedure involves tying two non-absorbable ligatures around the fallopian tube in its proximal to middle segment and then cutting out the tubal segment between the ligatures.
The end result is similar to the Pomeroy method of tubal ligation. Two healthy tubal segments remain that can be rejoined by tubal reversal microsurgery.
Two-thirds of women with a Parkland tubal ligation become pregnant following tubal reversal surger...

Tubal Ligation – Fimbriectomy
Tubal Reversal is Possible after Fimbriectomy
Fimbriectomy tubal ligation
Fimbriectomy
Tubal ligation by fimbriectomy involves removing a portion (usually up to one-third) of the fallopian tube closest to the ovary. With microsurgical techniques, the end of the remaining fallopian tube can be opened and the inner tubal lining gently folded outward over the cuff to improve the chances of egg capture. This tubal reversal procedure is called microsurgical salpingostomy.
Reversing Fimbriectomy tubal ligation
Final Result
It is generally thought that tubal reversal cannot be successful following a fimbriectomy because of the lo...

Essure and Adiana Tubal Sterilization
Essure and Adiana are hysteroscopic sterilization methods that block the fallopian tube.
Essure Sterilization Procedure
Essure sterilization is a new hysteroscopic tubal occlusion method that became approved for use in the United States in November 2002.
Essure is a coiled spring device that is inserted through the uterine cavity into the tubal openings using a hysteroscope. This can be done as an office procedure. The Essure micro-insert consists of a stainless steel inner coil, a super-elastic outer coil, and polyethylene fibers wound in and around the inner coil. When released, the outer coil expands to anchor the micro...

Tubal Ligation – Tubal Ring or Clip
Tubal Ligation with Tubal Rings or Tubal Clips
Tubal rings and tubal clips are mechanical methods of tubal ligation applied to the fallopian tubes through a laparoscope. Tubal rings and clips damage minimal lengths of the fallopian tube and are ideal for tubal reversal.
Tubal ligation with tubal rings
Tubal Ring
The tubal ring (also called the Falope ring, Yoon ring, or Lay loop) is a small silastic band placed around a loop of the fallopian tube. With this method of tubal ligation, a 2-3 cm segment of fallopian tube is drawn inside a narrow cone-shaped applicator. The silastic ring (that previously has been stretched over...
