Transvaginal scan- risks???!!!
Hi everyone
I'm freaking out and could really do with your perspectives.
Im 7+4 with twins after icsi.
Had a scan at EPU Monday 6+5 and showed twins all ok. Then had my first scan at fertility clinic Friday just gone I was 7+2 and confirmed everything fine again.
I know this is paranoia but my sister in law has planted a seed of worry about transvaginal ultrasound risks in early pregnancy saying some women choose not to have them because of the unknown risks. I didn't even know there were associated risks!! But now having googled I'm panicking that they can cause harm. Any body have any knowledge on this? Xxx
Net thanks for reassurance!! It's awful reading google every time I promise myself I wont do it, but I do!!!
Why would people scaremonger like that???
Thanks again xxxx
Honestly don't worry about it and please don't google things like this as you will only find the bad stories. I have had many TV scans, even later on in pregnancy and it has all been fine x

Hi Tab, I actually questioned this at the clinic because I had read the same thing but was reassured that they are perfectly safe. I feel better getting the scans and knowing all is well. I read a post from a woman who said she miscarried the day after her scan and asked about this but they said that this would most definitely not cause a miscarriage and I tend to believe that. Xx
