What should I expect when I get my ultrasound for Endometriosis?

Don't worry, it will be just the same as when you were pregnant. you can ask to see the screen if they don't show you, although you are not trained to see what they are looking for, to me it didn't look like anything. The worst of it will be having to wait to pee ( i hated that ) good luck

Vaginal ultrasound is a simple procedure. According to http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/00... "you will lie down on a table with your knees bent and feet in holders called stirrups. The health care provider will place a probe, called a transducer, into the vagina. The probe is covered with a condom and a gel. The probe sends out sound waves, which reflect off body structures. A computer receives these waves and uses them to create a picture. The doctor can immediately see the picture on a nearby TV monitor."

It should not hurt and is done with an empty bladder. The only thing is that Endometriosis cannot be seen on an ultrasound. The ONLY diagnostic method for Endometriosis is a Laparoscopic Surgery (http://www.endometriosis.org)/

Good luck to you.
