Checking the womb

Before we place embryos back into the womb, we need to ensure that the womb is normal.  There are two ways that we can do this:

3D saline infusion sonography (SIS) or hysteroscopy.  SIS is done in the CRGH and involves an ultrasound scan whilst a small amount of saline is injected into the womb.  Using the scan machine, the outline of the womb can be determined.  A hysteroscopy involves putting a small scope into the womb to see if it is normal.
