Fertility Ultrasound Scan

Private Fertility Scan​ in London

Our fertility ultrasound scan is a thorough gynaecological evaluation of your pelvic organs, including the womb, the lining of the womb, ovaries, fallopian tubes, and surrounding structures. At London Private Ultrasound, we perform this scan typically in the initial stage of the menstrual cycle, usually on day five and sometimes as early as day two, a procedure often referred to as a baseline scan.

About our Fertility Scan

Prioritise Your Wellbeing with Our Advanced Health Screening

The primary goal of the fertility assessment scan is to provide a comprehensive assessment of the pelvis, ovaries, uterus, and the lining of the womb (endometrium). This detailed examination is crucial for:

 

  • Pelvic Assessment: Evaluating the overall health and structure of the pelvic organs.
  • Ovarian Health: Checking the size, shape, and condition of the ovaries.
  • Uterine Evaluation: Assessing the uterus for any abnormalities, such as fibroids or polyps.
  • Endometrial Thickness: Measuring the thickness of the endometrium, which is vital for implantation during fertility treatments.

 

This scan is particularly important before starting a treatment cycle for various fertility procedures, including IVF, embryo transfer, donor eggs, donor sperm, IUI, and even in natural cycles without any medical intervention.

 

Monitoring Your Cycle and Treatment Response

Following the baseline scan, we continue to monitor the progress of your natural cycle to predict the time of ovulation for natural conception. Regular scans are essential during treatment cycles to check how your body is responding to the fertility treatment. This ongoing monitoring helps your fertility centre or GP to:

 

  • Adjust Treatment Plans: Based on how your body responds, your treatment plan can be adjusted to improve outcomes.
  • Optimise Ovulation Timing: For natural conception or timing fertility treatments, accurately predicting ovulation is crucial.
  • Evaluate Treatment Efficacy: Regular scans ensure that the treatment is progressing as expected and allows for timely interventions if necessary.

 

This type of scan will also rule out any structural cause that might explain difficulty conceiving, recurrent miscarriages, generalised pelvic pain, or any other related issues. We will also count how many follicles are visible at the beginning of the cycle within each ovary (antral follicular count), and comment on the accessibility of the ovaries for better planning of the upcoming IVF egg retrieval procedure.

Usually following your fertility assessment by a specialist, you are referred to have a pelvic scan. The aim of the scan is to check the female internal pelvis to check the health of the uterus, ovaries and the lining of the womb. This will provide the specialist or the fertility clinic an insight to the possible structural cause of possible fertility issues. We will assess any structural cause that may be associated with reduced fertility, such as fibroids, endometrial polyps, PCOS, abnormal shape of the womb or lining, adenomyosis, endometriosis, or reduced follicular count.
  • You will be asked a series of questions related to your menstrual period and relevant medical history
  • Perform the Ultrasound scan and take high-quality representative images
  • Explain ultrasound findings and answer your questions or concerns within our scope of practice
  • Issue a digital copy of the report within 24 hrs, containing relevant images for you to keep for your records, or take to your GP or specialist
  • Recommend a follow-up ultrasound scan if necessary
  • Offer a GP or specialist referral and a Blood Test if deemed necessary
There is a wide range of findings we may find during your Fertility Assessment Ultrasound Scan, aside for normal appearances of the pelvic organs, the most common are:
  • Reduced Follicular Count
  • Uterine fibroids (benign growth in the muscle of the womb)
  • Ovarian cysts (fluid-filled structure within the ovaries)
  • Endometrial polyps (benign growth within the lining of the womb)
  • Polycystic ovaries (suggestive of hormonal imbalance)
  • Uterine malformations (the shape of the womb may vary)
  • Hydrosalpinx (fluid within fallopian tubes)
  • Adenomyosis (condition when the cells of the lining of the womb implant within the muscle of the womb)
  • Endometriosis (condition when the cells of the lining of the womb implant within the surrounding pelvic structures)
  • Evidence of pelvic inflammatory disease
Usually, your referrer would request a series of blood tests for you at this initial stage of pre-IVF assessment, which we are happy to arrange for you.
We generally perform this scan in two parts: transabdominally (on top of the tummy) and transvaginally (internal scan), with transvaginal views giving the most details. The transabdominal part is performed on a full bladder (finish drinking 0.75-1L of water about 1 hr before your appointment time), after which you will be asked to empty your bladder before your internal scan.
The Ultrasound Specialist will explain the procedure before your scan. You will be provided with a gown to respect your modesty in the likelihood of an internal scan. It will then involve the insertion of the tip of the transvaginal probe, covered with a latex-free probe cover with a small amount of sterile gel into the vaginal canal. Our specialist will have to slightly move the probe to assess the relevant anatomy and to produce high-quality diagnostic ultrasound images. You may feel mild discomfort during your ultrasound scan; however, you can stop or pause the examination at any moment. The Pre-IVF Assessment ultrasound scan is regularly completed within 10-15 minutes. Our Sonographer will recommend the best course of action, depending on the ultrasound scan findings.
You will get the results verbally after the scan, followed by a digital copy of the report with relevant images after or within 24 hrs.
Ultrasound scan itself is not considered harmful. Your safety is one of our top priorities; therefore, we strictly adhere to BMUS guidelines for the safe use of Diagnostic Ultrasound Equipment and scanning times, as well as respect the ALARA principle (As Low As Reasonably Achievable).
Urgent health conditions can happen at any time of the day or night. In London Private Ultrasound, we offer emergency Pre-IVF Assessment ultrasound service late evenings, during weekends, Saturdays, or Sundays. Please call 07414165515 to book your urgent Pre-IVF Assessment ultrasound appointment now. (Terms and conditions apply)
Combining your ultrasound scan with one of our screening tests will give you a better picture of your health. We will recommend any beneficial screenings when you book online and will also recommend any further tests or screenings after your ultrasound scan.
