What to Expect: Office Cystoscopy


 

What is Cystoscopy?

  • During a cystoscopy, the doctor uses a small camera to look inside the bladder.
  • This may be performed to diagnose urinary tract infections, frequent or painful urination, blood in the urine, or other conditions.
  • Sometimes a biopsy (sample of tissue) is also taken at the same time.

What Will Happen?

  • Be sure to eat a small meal prior to your appointment.
  • It is nice to bring a driver with you, but it is not mandatory.
  • The nurse will drain your bladder and apply an anesthetic gel to the bladder opening.
  • The camera will be inserted into the bladder, and you will be able to see as well on the monitor screen!
  • Most women feel a slight discomfort as the camera is inserted, but it is well tolerated.
  • The procedure usually takes only 5-10 minutes.
  • At the end of the procedure, your bladder is drained again for your comfort.
  • You may return to normal activities right away.
  • If a biopsy was taken, you may see some pink, red, or brown fluid in the urine; be sure to drink plenty of fluids to flush out the bladder.

Thank you for allowing us to provide you with the best medical care!
