Pelvis Ultrasound — About the Test

A Pelvis Ultrasound is a real-time imaging scan of the pelvic organs — using high-frequency sound waves to create detailed images without any radiation. It is the first-line investigation for pelvic pain, menstrual irregularities, fertility concerns, and urinary symptoms. In women, a Pelvis Ultrasound evaluates the uterus, endometrium (uterine lining), ovaries, and fallopian tubes — detecting fibroids, ovarian cysts, endometriosis, and other gynaecological conditions. In men, it evaluates the bladder, prostate, and seminal vesicles — detecting prostate enlargement, bladder tumours, and urinary retention. Important preparation: A full bladder is required for the transabdominal pelvic ultrasound. Drink 4–6 glasses of water approximately 1 hour before your appointment and do not urinate until after the scan.

What Happens During a Pelvis Ultrasound? (15–20 Minutes)

Key benefits of this package include:

Step 1 — Preparation: Drink 4–6 glasses of water 1 hour before and do not urinate. A full bladder acts as an acoustic window, pushing the bowel aside and providing a clear view of pelvic organs.
Step 2 — Before the scan: Lie on the scanning table on your back. Lower your waistband to expose the lower abdomen.
Step 3 — The scan: The sonographer applies gel to the lower abdomen and moves the probe across the skin. For women, in some cases a transvaginal ultrasound (TVS) may be recommended for a clearer view of the uterus and ovaries — this is discussed and consented before proceeding.
Step 4 — Post-void scan (if needed): For bladder assessments, a post-void scan (after urinating) may be performed to measure residual urine volume.
Step 5 — Done: 15–20 minutes total. Report ready within 4 hours.

What a Pelvis Ultrasound Can Detect

In Women — Uterus

Uterine fibroids (leiomyomas) — benign muscular tumours, extremely common

Endometrial polyps — growths in the uterine lining

Endometrial thickening — can indicate hormonal imbalance or early endometrial pathology

Adenomyosis — uterine wall thickening from endometrial tissue within muscle

Uterine anomalies — bicornuate or septate uterus (congenital)

Retained products of conception — post-miscarriage or post-delivery

In Women — Ovaries

Ovarian cysts — functional cysts (simple) or complex cysts requiring monitoring

Polycystic ovaries (PCOS appearance) — multiple small follicles, enlarged ovaries

Ovarian torsion — twisted ovary (emergency finding)

Endometrioma — ovarian cysts from endometriosis ("chocolate cysts")

Ovarian tumours — solid or complex masses requiring further evaluation

Bladder (Men and Women)

Bladder wall thickening | Bladder tumours | Bladder stones | Post-void residual volume

In Men — Prostate and Seminal Vesicles

Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) — enlarged prostate causing urinary symptoms

Prostate size measurement — important for BPH management

Seminal vesicle abnormalities

FAQs

In women, it evaluates the uterus, ovaries, and bladder — detecting fibroids, cysts, endometriosis, and gynaecological conditions. In men, it assesses the bladder and prostate. It is the first-line pelvic imaging investigation.

A full bladder pushes the bowel gas away from the pelvis and acts as an acoustic window — providing a clear pathway for the ultrasound waves to reach pelvic organs. Without a full bladder, the scan quality is significantly reduced.

A transabdominal pelvic ultrasound uses a probe on the skin surface. A TVS (Transvaginal Scan) uses a slim probe inserted gently into the vagina — providing much clearer, higher-resolution images of the uterus and ovaries. TVS is always performed with patient consent and is particularly useful for early pregnancy, endometrial assessment, and ovarian pathology.

Yes. Ultrasound uses sound waves — no radiation — and is completely safe during pregnancy.

A Pelvis Ultrasound can detect endometriomas (ovarian "chocolate cysts") but cannot directly visualise all endometriotic implants. Laparoscopy remains the gold standard for definitive endometriosis diagnosis. An MRI pelvis provides better soft tissue detail when endometriosis is clinically suspected.
