Diagnostic Pathway

How your endometrial lining scan works

1. Book directly

You can self-refer online or call the clinic. Bring any relevant letters, previous scans, medication details or bleeding history.

2. Consent-led scan

The scan may include transabdominal imaging and, if you consent, transvaginal imaging for a clearer view of the womb lining.

3. Results explained

Your ultrasound clinician explains the main findings and provides a written diagnostic report for your GP, gynaecologist or fertility specialist.

4. Next steps

If the lining is unexpectedly thick, irregular or suspicious, your report can support timely onward referral for further investigation.

Important: Ultrasound can identify abnormal or suspicious appearances, but it cannot diagnose cancer by itself. Concerning results may require gynaecology review, hysteroscopy, biopsy or other specialist tests.

Common Questions

Frequently asked questions

What is an endometrial lining ultrasound scan?

It is a focused pelvic ultrasound assessment of the endometrium, the lining of the womb. The scan measures the lining thickness and looks at its pattern and appearance in relation to your age, menstrual cycle, symptoms and medication history.

How much does an endometrial lining ultrasound cost?

An endometrial lining ultrasound scan at London Private Ultrasound is £219, including the ultrasound assessment and written diagnostic report.

When should I book a womb lining scan?

You may consider booking if you have heavy or irregular bleeding, bleeding between periods, postmenopausal bleeding, bleeding after sex, fertility-related concerns, HRT or tamoxifen monitoring needs, or if your GP or specialist has asked for endometrial thickness assessment.

Can ultrasound detect endometrial polyps?

Ultrasound can sometimes show features suggestive of an endometrial polyp, such as focal thickening or an echogenic area in the lining. Some cases may require specialist gynaecology review or further tests such as hysteroscopy for confirmation.

Can ultrasound diagnose endometrial cancer?

No. Ultrasound cannot diagnose cancer by itself. It can identify concerning features such as unexpected thickening, irregularity or a mass-like appearance, which may require urgent GP or gynaecology referral and further tests such as biopsy.

Is a transvaginal scan needed?

Transvaginal imaging usually gives the clearest view of the endometrium and is often the most useful approach for lining assessment. It is optional and only performed with your consent. A transabdominal-only scan can be performed if you prefer.

Do I need a full bladder?

A comfortably full bladder can help for the transabdominal part of the scan. If a transvaginal scan is performed, an empty bladder is usually preferred.

Can I have the scan during my period?

Yes, but the best timing depends on the clinical question. For some lining assessments, your clinician or referring specialist may prefer a particular stage of the menstrual cycle.

Can I request a female sonographer?

Yes. A female ultrasound clinician is available on request at no extra cost. Please mention this when booking so the team can arrange a suitable appointment.

Do I need a GP referral?

No. You can self-refer and book directly. If you have previous scan reports, gynaecology letters, medication details or bleeding history, bring them to help tailor the assessment.

When will I receive the results?

Your ultrasound clinician will usually explain the main findings on the day. A written diagnostic report is provided for your GP, gynaecologist, fertility clinic or private specialist.

Is an endometrial scan safe?

Yes. Ultrasound uses sound waves rather than ionising radiation and is widely used in gynaecology when performed by trained professionals.
