What to Expect During Your Female Reproductive Ultrasound Appointment

Understanding the process helps you feel prepared and at ease. Here is a step-by-step guide to your female reproductive ultrasound at our South Lake Tahoe location.

Scheduling Your Appointment

Call us or book online to schedule your pelvic ultrasound. We offer appointments within 24 hours and can accommodate urgent referrals from your OB-GYN or primary care provider.

Preparing for Your Scan

For a transabdominal pelvic ultrasound, you will be asked to drink 32 ounces of water approximately one hour before your appointment. A full bladder helps lift the uterus and provides a clearer acoustic window for imaging.

For a transvaginal ultrasound (TVS), an empty bladder is preferred. You may be asked to use the restroom just before the scan begins. No fasting or special dietary restrictions are needed.

During the Scan

For a transabdominal scan, warm gel is applied to your lower abdomen, and a transducer glides across the skin to capture images. For a transvaginal scan, a slim, lubricated probe is gently inserted. Both approaches are safe and most patients report only mild pressure or slight discomfort.

Receiving Your Results

Your ultrasound images are sent to a board-certified radiologist for interpretation. A detailed written report is delivered to your referring physician within 24 hours.

Follow-Up Care

Your OB-GYN or primary care provider will review the results with you and recommend any next steps — whether that means monitoring, additional testing, or treatment.

Our Female Reproductive Ultrasound Capabilities

UltraVision Imaging offers a comprehensive range of female reproductive ultrasound studies using advanced portable ultrasound systems. All exams are performed by RDMS-certified sonographers and interpreted by board-certified radiologists.

  • Ovarian Cyst Evaluation: Characterization of ovarian cysts by size, morphology, and vascularity to help your provider determine whether monitoring or intervention is appropriate.
  • Follicle Monitoring for Fertility: Serial ultrasound tracking of ovarian follicle development for women undergoing fertility treatments such as IUI or IVF.
  • Polycystic Ovary Screening: Assessment of ovarian volume and follicle count to support the diagnosis of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).
  • Transvaginal Ultrasound (TVS): High-resolution imaging of the uterus, endometrium, ovaries, and adnexa using a specialized transvaginal probe for optimal detail.
  • Endometrial Thickness Measurement: Precise measurement of the uterine lining, important for evaluating abnormal bleeding, post-menopausal symptoms, and fertility assessments.
  • Uterine Fibroid Assessment: Detailed mapping of fibroids — including size, number, and location — to guide treatment planning with your gynecologist.

Who Benefits from Female Reproductive Ultrasound in South Lake Tahoe?

Female Reproductive Ultrasound serves a wide range of patients across South Lake Tahoe and the surrounding El Dorado County communities. Here are some common scenarios where this imaging is recommended:

  • A woman experiencing heavy or irregular menstrual periods may benefit from a pelvic ultrasound to identify potential causes such as fibroids, polyps, or hormonal imbalances.
  • Post-menopausal women with unexpected vaginal bleeding need prompt evaluation — a transvaginal ultrasound can assess endometrial thickness and screen for concerning changes.

Frequently Asked Questions About Female Reproductive Ultrasound in South Lake Tahoe

1. When will I get my pelvic ultrasound results?

Your images are reviewed by a board-certified radiologist, and a detailed report is sent to your referring physician within 24 hours. Your doctor will discuss the findings with you and outline any next steps based on the results.

2. How much does a pelvic ultrasound cost in South Lake Tahoe?

We offer competitive, transparent pricing for our female reproductive ultrasound services. The cost varies depending on the type of exam ordered by your provider (transabdominal, transvaginal, or both). We accept most major insurance plans and also offer affordable self-pay options. Contact our scheduling team for a personalized quote.

3. How do I prepare for a transvaginal ultrasound?

For a transvaginal ultrasound, an empty bladder is preferred — so you may be asked to use the restroom before the scan. No fasting is required. Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing for easy access. The entire procedure is brief and most patients report only mild pressure.

4. How long does a female reproductive ultrasound take?

A typical pelvic ultrasound appointment takes 20 to 40 minutes. A combined transabdominal and transvaginal exam may take slightly longer. We schedule generous appointment windows so your sonographer can be thorough without feeling rushed.

5. Can I have a pelvic ultrasound during my period?

Yes, a pelvic ultrasound can generally be performed during menstruation. In some cases, your provider may prefer to schedule the exam at a specific point in your cycle — for example, follicle monitoring is typically performed during certain cycle days. Your referring physician will advise you on optimal timing.

6. Can a pelvic ultrasound detect ovarian cancer?

A pelvic ultrasound can identify suspicious ovarian masses, cysts, or changes in blood flow patterns that may warrant further evaluation. While ultrasound alone cannot diagnose cancer, it is an important screening and diagnostic tool that your physician uses alongside lab work and clinical assessment.

7. Do I need a doctor’s referral for a pelvic ultrasound?

Yes, a physician’s order is typically required for a diagnostic pelvic ultrasound. Your OB-GYN, primary care provider, or fertility specialist can provide a referral. If you do not currently have a provider, our team can assist with local recommendations in South Lake Tahoe.
