A pelvic ultrasound in Delhi is a painless scan of the female pelvic organs — the uterus and ovaries — used to find the cause of pelvic pain, abnormal or heavy bleeding, fibroids, ovarian cysts and fertility concerns. It can be done over the tummy (transabdominal) or, for a clearer view, as a transvaginal scan (TVS). At Edge Imaging & Diagnostics in Paschim Vihar, West Delhi, pelvic ultrasound is performed accurately and with care and privacy.
This guide explains what a pelvic ultrasound is, why it is done, the difference between abdominal and transvaginal scans, and what to expect.

What Is a Pelvic Ultrasound?
A pelvic ultrasound uses sound waves to image the uterus, its lining (endometrium), the ovaries and the surrounding pelvis. It can detect fibroids, ovarian cysts, polyps, and changes linked to conditions such as PCOS, and it is also used to track ovulation in fertility treatment. It involves no radiation and gives clear, real-time information.
Why Is a Pelvic Ultrasound Done?
- Pelvic pain or a feeling of pressure or a mass
- Heavy, irregular or abnormal menstrual bleeding
- Fibroids and ovarian cysts — detection and monitoring
- PCOS assessment and fertility / follicular studies
- Checking the position of an IUD (copper-T) or evaluating early pregnancy
Abdominal vs Transvaginal (TVS) Scan
A transabdominal scan is done over the lower tummy with a comfortably full bladder and gives a good overview. A transvaginal scan (TVS) uses a slim probe placed in the vagina for a much closer, more detailed view of the uterus and ovaries, and is usually done with an empty bladder. Your doctor chooses the approach based on what needs to be seen; both are safe.
| Pelvic ultrasound checks | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Uterus & endometrium | Fibroids, polyps, lining thickness |
| Ovaries | Cysts, PCOS pattern, follicles |
| Fertility / ovulation | Follicular tracking |
| Pelvis | Free fluid or a mass |
For Fibroids and Beyond
If the scan finds fibroids that are causing symptoms, several treatment options exist, including minimally invasive uterine fibroid embolization (UFE). Your gynaecologist and radiologist will guide you based on the findings.
How the Scan Is Performed and Is It Safe?
A transabdominal scan simply needs gel and the probe over your lower tummy; a TVS uses a thin, gently inserted probe. Both are safe and use no radiation. The scan usually takes about 15–25 minutes. It is part of our wider ultrasound services, performed with full privacy and, where preferred, a female attendant.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a pelvic ultrasound cost in Delhi?
A pelvic ultrasound in Delhi generally costs about ₹900–₹2,200 depending on whether an abdominal or transvaginal scan is done. Edge Imaging offers transparent pricing — please call us for the current cost.
Is a transvaginal scan painful or safe?
It is safe and usually causes only mild pressure, not pain. A slim probe is used gently, and the scan is done with your comfort and privacy in mind.
Do I need a full bladder?
For an abdominal scan, yes — a comfortably full bladder gives clearer images. For a transvaginal scan an empty bladder is preferred. We’ll tell you exactly what to do when you book.
Can a transabdominal scan be done instead of a TVS?
Yes. A transabdominal scan is a good alternative when a transvaginal scan is not suitable or preferred, and we will always respect your choice.
Can it help with PCOS and fertility?
Yes. Pelvic ultrasound assesses the ovaries for a PCOS pattern and is used for follicular tracking during fertility treatment.
