Hi everyone hope you all are keeping safe and well.
After waiting for about 3 months I finally have a trans vaginal ultrasound tomorrow to finally try and figure out what is going on. I just finished a 5 week period on Friday so this couldn't happen at a better time. I'm feeling a bit anxious about the scan and hoping that whatever they find will get to the bottom of the 6 months of uncomfortable pain and stress I've been through with my irregular menstrual cycles.
What should I expect when I have this scan tomorrow?
Wish me luck x

Hi. Transvaginal scans are pretty simple. They will want you to have an empty bladder. You will have to strip from the waist down and be given a sheet to cover you. They basically stick a condom on a probe and then insert it. It doesn't tend to be painful unless they have a really good dig around to try and find something but then its just uncomfortable. All you need to do is stare at the ceiling and think nice thoughts! Good luck x
