It can show changes in the shape of the bladder and the blood flow through the pelvic organs. A form of this technique called the fetal ultrasound is used during pregnancy to monitor fetal development. A pelvic ultrasound doesn\u2019t provide an actual diagnosis, but can show abnormalities like tumors or infections.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/i><\/i><\/span>What\u2019s the Procedure Like?<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div>\nA pelvic ultrasound may be performed by placing the transducer on the abdomen (trans-abdominal) or through the vagina (trans-vaginal). In some cases, both may be used to obtain the best information. It is not painful, although some women report slight discomfort with a trans-vaginal ultrasound. It\u2019s important that your bladder be full for the trans-abdominal procedure, so drink plenty of water. For a trans-vaginal ultrasound, however, you should empty your bladder just before the procedure.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/i><\/i><\/span>Will I Need Other Tests?<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div>\nA pelvic ultrasound is only one of several diagnostic tests you may need. For example, you may need a pelvic examination and pap smear to look for cervical cancer. If your doctor thinks you have a vaginal infection, you may need to have a specimen collected for analysis. If you are having abnormal bleeding, your doctor might want blood tests to check your hormonal levels or the number of red blood cells (which will show if you are anemic).<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
