I had a hysteroscopy last year. I had it on the NHS under general anaesthetic. They removed 2 polyps and a fibroid and the whole thing took approx 30 mins. I went back to work the next day.  I wouldn’t have wanted it done under local anaesthetic especially when I saw all the students standing with the consultant!

I had one last autumn. Took paracetamol prior, no anaesthetic. Lovely nurses and v skilled doctor so no pain as such.
I’ve got three children though and it brought those memories back like nothing else I’ve experienced since!

We are all so different with pain thresholds.  Ask for a general anaesthetic if you feel you can't cope.  It probably won't be offered unless you ask. I did and it was the best thing for me.
