Pelvic Scan - Fertility Endometrial Thickness Scan £99
What is This Scan ?
Pelvic Fertility Endometrial Thickness Scan
Our Pelvic Fertility Endometrial Thickness Scan is tailored for individuals preparing for fertility treatment, both in the UK and abroad. This essential procedure uses a transvaginal ultrasound to evaluate the thickness and condition of the endometrial lining (womb lining) and provides a basic assessment of the ovaries.
What the Scan Involves:
- Endometrial Assessment: Measures the thickness and appearance of the endometrial lining to determine its readiness for embryo implantation.
- Ovarian Check: Confirms the ovaries are in a 'quiet' state, meaning no active follicles are present.
Important Note: This scan offers a basic ovarian assessment but does not include a full follicle count. Fertility Scan Clinic
Pelvic Fertility Endometrial Thickness Scan Overview
This scan is performed by our qualified sonographers with extensive diagnostic scanning experience. It supports your fertility treatment journey by:
- Measuring Endometrial Thickness: Assessing the endometrial lining's readiness for embryo implantation.
- Checking Ovarian Activity: Ensuring the ovaries are in a 'quiet' state with no dominant follicles.
Important Notes:
- A full follicle count is NOT included. If needed, consider our Pelvic Fertility Monitoring Scan for comprehensive follicle measurements.
- If you have an intrauterine contraceptive device (IUD), endometrial thickness cannot be measured. Please consult your healthcare provider for guidance.
