What is a Combined Transabdominal and Transvaginal Female Pelvis?
Ultrasound uses high-frequency sound waves — no radiation and no injections — to produce real-time images of soft tissues and organs.
A Combined Transabdominal and Transvaginal Female Pelvis allows your radiologist to examine:
- The uterus, including its lining (endometrium) and muscular wall (myometrium).
- The ovaries, noting their size, shape, and appearance.
- The fallopian tubes, assessing for any fluid or thickening.
- The cervix.
- The bladder.
- The lower part of the abdomen.
Ultrasound is safe, painless, and radiation-free — making it a first-line investigation for many conditions of the combined transabdominal and transvaginal female pelvis.

Frequently asked questions
Will the scan show any problems with my womb or ovaries?
This ultrasound provides detailed images of your womb and ovaries, allowing our Consultant Radiologist to assess their appearance and identify any notable changes or abnormalities. Any findings will be clearly explained in your report.
Is the transvaginal ultrasound painful?
The transvaginal scan involves a small, lubricated probe being gently inserted a short distance into the vagina. Most patients find it only mildly uncomfortable, if at all. The transabdominal part involves a probe moved over the skin with warm gel, which is painless.
How long does the combined pelvic ultrasound take?
The combined transabdominal and transvaginal pelvic ultrasound typically takes around 30 minutes to complete.
Can I have this scan if I have an IUD?
Yes, this scan is suitable for women with an intrauterine device (IUD). The ultrasound can help visualise the position of the IUD within the uterus.
How quickly can I get a scan?
Most MRI, ultrasound, and X-ray scans at MyScanHub can be booked same-day or next-day. Walk-in slots are available for X-rays most weekdays.
Do I need a GP referral?
No — MyScanHub accepts self-referral for most scans. Our consultant radiologists review every case. Some scans (e.g. contrast studies) do need a referring clinician; we'll let you know at booking.
When will I get my report?
Written reports from a GMC-registered consultant radiologist are delivered within 3 working days of your scan, often sooner. You can access the report — and the imaging — through your patient account on portal.myscanhub.com.

Yes. MyScanHub is CQC-registered and fully GDPR-compliant. Your imaging and report are encrypted in transit and at rest, and only shared with parties you explicitly authorise.
