USG Pelvis is an ultrasound test used to examine the pelvic organs, including the bladder, uterus, ovaries, and prostate. It helps diagnose conditions such as fibroids, ovarian cysts, and pelvic inflammatory disease (PID).
Indications for USG Pelvis:
● Pelvic pain: To identify the cause of persistent pelvic pain in both women and men.
● Irregular menstruation: To check for fibroids, endometriosis, or ovarian cysts.
● Pregnancy: To monitor the fetus and assess its development in early stages.
● Prostate enlargement: In men, to evaluate the prostate gland for signs of enlargement or cancer.
How USG Pelvis Works:
● A gel is applied to the pelvic area, and the transducer is moved over the area to create images of the pelvic organs. A transvaginal ultrasound may be used for clearer images in women.
Normal Range:
● Normal results show healthy pelvic organs without any abnormalities such as cysts or growths.
Abnormal Test Significance:
● Fibroids, ovarian cysts, or pelvic masses can indicate underlying gynae disorders or other conditions like prostate issues.
Price in India:
Approx. ₹1,500 – ₹4,000 for a pelvic ultrasound.
