Dr Shikha Sardana offers advanced Diagnostic and Operative Hysteroscopy for the accurate diagnosis and minimally invasive treatment of various uterine conditions. Hysteroscopy is a modern day-care procedure that uses a thin, lighted camera called a hysteroscope to examine the inside of the uterus without the need for major surgery.
This procedure is commonly used to diagnose and treat uterine septum, endometrial polyps, intrauterine adhesions (Asherman's syndrome), retained products of conception, submucosal fibroids, and abnormal uterine bleeding. Diagnostic hysteroscopy helps identify the cause of symptoms, while operative hysteroscopy allows many conditions to be treated during the same procedure.
Using advanced hysteroscopic equipment and evidence-based medical practices, Dr Shikha Sardana provides safe, precise, and personalized care with minimal discomfort and faster recovery. Our goal is to improve reproductive health, preserve fertility whenever possible, and help women return to their normal routine quickly through minimally invasive treatment.
