Ultrasound Services
Ultrasound is a safe, painless imaging technique used to support both obstetric and gynecologic care. Whether confirming a pregnancy, evaluating pelvic symptoms, or monitoring fetal development, ultrasound provides clear, real-time images that help your provider make accurate, timely decisions about your health. At Care for Womens Medical Group, our in-office ultrasound services are performed by experienced technicians and reviewed directly by your provider, ensuring convenience, comfort, and confidence in your results.
What Is an Ultrasound?
An ultrasound (or sonogram) uses high-frequency sound waves to create images of internal structures. This imaging method is safe for pregnant and non-pregnant patients alike because it does not use radiation.
Ultrasound is commonly used to:
- Confirm and date a pregnancy
- Monitor fetal growth and well-being
- Evaluate pelvic pain, irregular bleeding, or abnormal periods
- Detect ovarian cysts, fibroids, or uterine abnormalities
- Guide procedures such as IUD placement or biopsies
With ultrasound, you receive valuable diagnostic insight while maintaining safety and comfort at every step.
Types of Ultrasound We Offer
We provide a full range of ultrasound services for women’s health needs, including:
1. Transabdominal Ultrasound
Performed over the abdomen and often used for pregnancy or general pelvic imaging.
2. Transvaginal Ultrasound
A thin probe is gently inserted into the vagina for a closer look at the uterus and ovaries. Commonly used in early pregnancy or for detailed imaging.
3. Obstetric Ultrasound
Used throughout pregnancy to monitor fetal growth, anatomy, position, and amniotic fluid levels. Includes:
- Early dating scans
- Anatomy scans (typically around 20 weeks)
- Biophysical profiles for fetal health assessment
4. Gynecologic Ultrasound
Evaluates the uterus, ovaries, and surrounding structures to identify conditions like fibroids, ovarian cysts, or endometriosis.
When Is an Ultrasound Recommended
Your provider may recommend an ultrasound for a variety of reasons, including:
- Confirming an early pregnancy
- Tracking fetal growth and movement
- Investigating pelvic pain or abnormal bleeding
- Monitoring known conditions such as fibroids or polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)
- Evaluating fertility or ovulation timing
- Assessing postmenopausal changes or symptoms
Each ultrasound is customized based on your health history and the specific concerns being addressed.
What to Expect During Your Ultrasound
Ultrasound exams are performed in a comfortable, private setting. Depending on the type of scan:
- You may be asked to arrive with a full bladder for early pregnancy or pelvic imaging
- A warm gel is applied to the abdomen or probe to improve image clarity
- The procedure takes about 15–30 minutes
- You can return to normal activities immediately afterward
Your provider will review the images with you, explain the findings, and discuss any next steps or treatments if needed.
