Question about going for a sono
I have a sonogram scheduled for tonight. I *think* I may have had one years ago but I don't remember the procedure.
This is just a check to make sure there are no fibroids or blockages. Do you think it will be internal or external?
TIA

Re: Question about going for a sono
Just my experience.. I went for a sono and it was an internal. Very quick and painless!! It's a very LONG instrument but all of it is not "inserted". they move it around and snap some pics for the dr.
Good Luck!!

Definitely internal.
Have you had an HSG? That would be way to see if there are blockages in your tubes or scar tissue/fibroids/etc in your uterus.

I haven't had that yet. The Dr. did mention that he may do that down the road but this is the first exam on his list.
Thanks, Ladies.

Sounds like a good plan! The internal sonos really aren't that bad... they usually use a ton of lubricant (mine is even warmed haha) and usually it's pretty quick and may have minor discomfort.

Re: Question about going for a sono
I had one yesterday it was internal and external. I had to drink lots of water for the external and then they let me pee and then they did the internal.

Re: Question about going for a sono
Like the others said--probably both -- internal and external. Everytime I go for a sono, they do both.

Thanks. I had the LEEP procedure a few years ago, so I've experienced discomfort, although it's never fun
