How will a Post Menopause Ultrasound help me?

A post-menopause ultrasound scan is a safe, painless imaging test used to examine the pelvic organs of women who have gone through menopause. This includes the uterus, ovaries, and endometrium (the lining of the uterus). After menopause, the uterus and ovaries change in size and function, and a scan can help detect any abnormalities early.

Post Menopause Ultrasound

Why is it done?

Investigate postmenopausal bleeding or unusual discharge

Check endometrial thickness to detect potential growths or polyps

Identify fibroids, ovarian cysts, or masses

Monitor changes in the pelvic organs for women with risk factors or symptoms

What can I expect?

Most post- menopause ultrasounds are performed transvaginally, which means a small probe is gently inserted into the vagina to get detailed images of the uterus and ovaries. In some cases, a transabdominal scan (full bladder required) may also be done to provide a wider view.

The procedure is generally quick (15–30 minutes), painless, and non-invasive. No special preparation is usually required, though you may be asked to empty your bladder before a transvaginal scan.

Not always. Many women have scans only if they experience bleeding, pelvic pain, or unusual discharge, or if their doctor identifies specific risk factors. Routine screening isn’t usually necessary.

Most post-menopause ultrasounds are transvaginal, where a small probe is gently inserted into the vagina for detailed images. Sometimes, a transabdominal scan is also done for a broader view.

Most women feel only mild pressure. The procedure is generally painless and non-invasive.

Typically 15–30 minutes, depending on the area being examined.

For a transvaginal scan, you may be asked to empty your bladder. No special preparation is usually required.
