FAQS
What Is an Ultrasound Scan?
An ultrasound scan uses high-frequency sound waves to produce images of the body’s interior. It is a non-invasive and painless procedure, typically carried out by a trained sonographer. When used to examine female reproductive organs, people often refer to this type of scan as a “pelvic ultrasound” or “gynaecological ultrasound.”
Why book an Ultrasound Scan?
You might book an ultrasound to diagnose or monitor a range of conditions. This could include checking the health of your organs. Evaluating symptoms like pain or swelling, monitoring a pregnancy, or guiding certain treatments and procedures. Ultrasound Scans Birmingham provides a detailed, real-time view inside your body without any radiation exposure.

Types of Female Ultrasound Scans
There are two main types of ultrasound scans for women: abdominal and transvaginal.
- Abdominal Ultrasound: Using a gel on the lower abdomen, a transducer moves across the skin to capture images of the uterus, ovaries, and surrounding structures. Early pregnancy scans and general pelvic examinations frequently use it.
- Transvaginal Ultrasound: This scan involves inserting a small probe into the vagina. It provides more detailed images and is particularly useful for investigating early pregnancy, detecting ovarian cysts, or monitoring gynaecological issues. The procedure is safe and comfortable for most women.
When are female ultrasound scans used?
When are female ultrasound scans used?
Female ultrasound scans are used to investigate a variety of conditions and scenarios, including:
- Pregnancy Monitoring: Ultrasound is the most commonly used imaging technique for monitoring pregnancy. It helps assess the baby’s growth, position, and overall development. We routinely perform scans at various stages of pregnancy, including the dating scan around 12 weeks and the anomaly scan around 20 weeks.
- Pelvic Pain and Abnormal Bleeding: Ultrasound can help identify the causes of pelvic pain or irregular bleeding, such as fibroids, polyps, or ovarian cysts.
- Infertility: When investigating fertility issues, ultrasound plays a critical role in evaluating the uterus and ovaries. It can track ovulation and identify potential problems, such as blocked fallopian tubes or endometriosis.
- Menstrual Irregularities: In cases of heavy or irregular periods, an ultrasound may help detect conditions like fibroids or polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).
- Post-Menopausal Bleeding: It’s important to investigate any bleeding that occurs after menopause. Ultrasound is often the first step in diagnosing conditions like endometrial hyperplasia or cancer.
How to Prepare for a Female Ultrasound Scan
We may ask you to drink water before an abdominal ultrasound. A full bladder provides a clearer view of the pelvic organs.
For a transvaginal ultrasound, no specific preparation is usually required. The sonographer will explain the procedure and ensure you’re comfortable throughout the process.
What to Expect During the Procedure
You will be required to lie down on an examination couch during the scan. The sonographer will apply a gel to the area under examination. The sonographer moves the transducer across the abdomen for an abdominal scan.
For a transvaginal scan, a small probe is gently inserted into the vagina. Both methods are generally quick and painless.
The scan typically takes around 15 to 30 minutes. The referring clinician receives the results for analysis after the procedure. Your doctor will discuss the findings with you, as well as any necessary next steps.

Are ultrasound scans safe?
Ultrasound scans are considered safe for both women and unborn babies. Unlike X-rays, they do not use ionising radiation. The sound waves used in ultrasound do not harm tissues or cells. This makes them an excellent choice for monitoring pregnancies and gynaecological conditions.
