What is a Fertility Ultrasound Scan?

A fertility ultrasound uses high-frequency sound waves to produce real-time images of your uterus, ovaries, fallopian tubes, and endometrium — without radiation or surgery. At Aakash, we offer all six types of fertility ultrasound scans under one roof, performed by experienced female sonologists using GE Voluson equipment, with same-day reports ready for your fertility consultation.

Who Needs a Fertility Ultrasound?

Before Starting IVF or IUI

Baseline scan to assess uterine cavity, endometrial thickness, and ovarian reserve before treatment begins.

Irregular or Absent Periods

To identify PCOS, ovarian cysts, or hormonal imbalance affecting your cycle and fertility.

Recurrent Miscarriage or IVF Failure

3D ultrasound or sonohysterogram reveals hidden uterine abnormalities missed by standard 2D scans.

Suspected Blocked Tubes

HyCoSy test checks fallopian tube patency — a less invasive alternative to HSG X-ray.

During IVF / Ovulation Monitoring

Serial follicle tracking scans every 2–3 days to guide trigger shot timing and egg retrieval.

General Fertility Health Check

Annual scan to assess ovarian reserve (AFC), detect fibroids or polyps early, and plan future fertility decisions.

6 Types of Fertility Ultrasound Scans at Aakash

Each scan serves a specific diagnostic purpose — our team recommends the right one for your situation

Type 01

Transabdominal Ultrasound

The probe is placed on your abdomen with gel. Provides a wide view of the uterus, ovaries, and bladder. Requires a full bladder for best image quality.

₹500 – ₹800 Initial screening
Type 02

Transvaginal (Pelvic) Ultrasound

A slim probe is gently inserted to give highly detailed images of the endometrium, ovarian follicles, and uterine lining — far clearer than transabdominal.

₹800 – ₹1,200 First-line fertility scan
Type 03

Antral Follicle Count (AFC)

Done on day 2–4 of your cycle to count small resting follicles in both ovaries. The total AFC predicts your ovarian reserve and IVF stimulation response.

₹1,000 – ₹1,500 Before IVF / ovarian reserve check
Type 04 — Advanced

3D Ultrasound Imaging

Provides a 3-dimensional coronal view of the uterus invisible on 2D scans — the gold standard for detecting uterine septum, arcuate and bicornuate uterus. Same-day detailed report included.

₹1,500 – ₹2,500 Recurrent IVF failure / miscarriage
Full 3D Ultrasound Guide →
Type 05

Sonohysterogram (SHG)

Sterile saline is gently infused into the uterine cavity during a transvaginal scan. Highlights polyps, submucous fibroids, and adhesions inside the uterus with high accuracy.

₹2,000 – ₹3,000 Before IVF / recurrent implantation failure
Type 06

HyCoSy — Tube Patency Test

A contrast agent is passed through the fallopian tubes during ultrasound to confirm they are open (patent). A safer, radiation-free alternative to HSG X-ray for checking blocked tubes.

₹3,000 – ₹5,000 Suspected blocked tubes

What Can a Fertility Ultrasound Detect?

Conditions identified at Aakash that affect fertility and treatment outcomes

🔬

Uterine Fibroids

Size, location, and impact on the uterine cavity assessed

🔬

Endometrial Polyps

Small growths inside the cavity detected via SHG or 3D scan

🔬

Uterine Septum

Congenital partition dividing the uterus — 3D scan gold standard

🔬

PCOS

String-of-pearls follicle pattern plus ovarian volume measurement

🔬

Ovarian Cysts

Type, size, and complexity scored to guide management

🔬

Hydrosalpinx

Fluid-filled blocked tube — identified before IVF to improve success rate

🔬

Blocked Fallopian Tubes

Confirmed via HyCoSy — no radiation, no X-ray

🔬

Endometrial Receptivity

Thickness and pattern assessed on trigger day for optimal embryo transfer

🔬

Poor Ovarian Reserve

Low AFC count and small ovarian volume predict reduced IVF response

🔬

Arcuate / Bicornuate Uterus

Uterine shape anomalies visible only on 3D scan coronal view

Frequently Asked Questions

Which ultrasound scan is done first for fertility?
A transvaginal ultrasound is usually the first scan — it provides detailed images of the uterus, ovaries, and endometrium. An AFC scan is added if ovarian reserve assessment is needed.
What is the cost of a fertility ultrasound in Chennai?
Costs range from ₹500 (transabdominal) to ₹5,000 (HyCoSy). 3D ultrasound starts at ₹1,500. Scans included in IVF packages attract no additional charge.
Do I need to prepare for a fertility ultrasound?
For transabdominal scans, drink 4–6 glasses of water 1 hour before (full bladder needed). Transvaginal scans prefer an empty bladder. No preparation needed for AFC, 3D, or HyCoSy unless specified by your doctor.
Is a transvaginal ultrasound painful?
Most women find it mildly uncomfortable at most. The probe is slim and gently inserted. The procedure takes 10–15 minutes and is always performed by a female sonologist at Aakash.
Can ultrasound diagnose PCOS?
Yes. A transvaginal ultrasound detects the classic 'string of pearls' pattern of 12+ follicles — one of the three PCOS diagnostic criteria alongside symptoms and hormone levels.
What is a Sonohysterogram and when is it needed?
A sonohysterogram (SHG) infuses sterile saline into the uterine cavity during ultrasound to reveal polyps, fibroids, and adhesions. It is recommended before IVF or when recurrent implantation failure occurs.
What is a HyCoSy test?
HyCoSy is an ultrasound-based test to check if the fallopian tubes are open (patent). A contrast agent passes through the tubes while scanning — a radiation-free alternative to HSG X-ray.
What does an AFC scan measure?
An AFC scan counts small resting follicles (2–10 mm) in both ovaries on day 2–4 of the cycle. The total count estimates ovarian reserve and predicts IVF stimulation response.
How long does a fertility ultrasound take?
Most scans take 15–30 minutes. HyCoSy and sonohysterogram may take 30–45 minutes including preparation. Same-day written reports are provided.
Do I need a referral for a fertility ultrasound at Aakash?
No referral is needed. Book directly online or by calling us. Our specialists recommend the right scan type during your first consultation.
