The Uterine Sound is an essential gynecological instrument used to measure the depth, length, and direction of the uterine cavity with accuracy. This simple yet critical tool ensures safe and precise surgical and diagnostic procedures such as IUD insertion, D&C, hysteroscopy, and fertility assessments.
 
How to Use a Uterine Sound:
 
Ensure the instrument is properly sterilized before the procedure.
The surgeon gently inserts the rounded tip through the cervical canal.
By advancing slowly, the physician measures the depth and direction of the uterine cavity using the etched graduations.
Once the information is obtained, the sound is removed and cleaned thoroughly for reuse.
Proper storage maintains instrument longevity and performance.
