The uterus is a very important organ for a woman, playing a crucial role in the process of growth and development, and the female hormones in the body are also secreted by the uterus. However, the probability of women suffering from uterine diseases is increasing, and they often need to undergo color ultrasound for diagnosis. So, is transabdominal uterine adnexal ultrasound a negative ultrasound?
Generally speaking, uterine adnexal ultrasound can be divided into two types: abdominal ultrasound and genital ultrasound. When doing ultrasound, you can choose abdominal ultrasound or genital ultrasound according to your actual situation. But transabdominal uterine adnexal ultrasound is an abdominal ultrasound. If you want to do transabdominal ultrasound, you need to drink plenty of water to hold your urine, but if you want to do genital ultrasound, you don't need to hold your urine. However, generally speaking, doctors recommend that women who have not had sexual intercourse undergo abdominal ultrasound. If they have had sexual intercourse, it is generally recommended to undergo genital ultrasound because the accuracy of genital ultrasound is relatively higher.
Uterine adnexal ultrasound can observe whether there are abnormalities in the female uterus, fallopian tubes, and ovaries on both sides of the uterus. Regarding the uterus, it is possible to know if there are any issues such as uterine fibroids or adenomyosis. In addition, the thickness of the endometrium and the presence of polyps in the uterus can also be observed. In addition, the presence of intrauterine adhesions can also be confirmed through uterine adnexal ultrasound. Regarding the bilateral fallopian tubes and ovaries, it can be determined whether there are cysts or fluid accumulation in the fallopian tubes.
