Thyroid and Pelvis Profile Scan – £300
Why Should You Choose This Scan?: The Thyroid & Pelvis Profile Health Scan at UKSONO Healthcare is designed to provide a comprehensive evaluation of both your thyroid gland and pelvic organs. If you’ve been experiencing symptoms like hormonal imbalances, irregular periods, pelvic pain, or thyroid-related issues such as fatigue or unexplained weight changes, this scan is a vital tool to help detect any underlying concerns. A thorough check-up now could prevent future complications and offer peace of mind.
What Does This Scan Evaluate?:
- Thyroid Gland: We will assess your thyroid for any structural abnormalities, such as nodules, enlargement, or other issues that could affect hormone production. Hormonal imbalances can influence a range of functions, including reproductive health, so detecting thyroid issues early is key.
- Pelvic Region: The scan will also assess the uterus, ovaries, and surrounding structures to check for abnormalities like fibroids, polyps, cysts, or other issues that may affect reproductive health and overall pelvic wellbeing.
What to Expect During the Scan?: The Thyroid & Pelvis Profile Health Scan is a thorough, non-invasive procedure that lasts around 25-30 minutes. Here’s how it works:
- Thyroid Scan: A transcervical scan is used to assess your thyroid. A small amount of gel will be applied to the skin at the front of your neck, and the ultrasound probe will gently move over the area to capture images of the thyroid gland.
- Pelvic Scan: A transabdominal scan will be performed to examine the pelvic organs. A small amount of gel will be applied to your abdomen, and the ultrasound probe will capture clear images of your uterus, ovaries, and surrounding areas.
- If a more detailed view of the uterus or ovaries is required, a transvaginal scan may be conducted. This involves inserting a small ultrasound probe into the vagina for a closer look. Written consent will be obtained prior to this procedure to ensure you are fully informed and comfortable.
How to Prepare for the Scan: To ensure optimal results, here’s what you should do:
- Full Bladder: For the pelvic scan, you’ll need to arrive with a full bladder. This helps enhance the visibility of your pelvic organs and structures.
- No Special Fasting Required: No fasting is necessary for this scan, so you can come as you are.
