Here at the Regency International Clinic, we provide world class medical services and surgery, including ultrasound scans in London. We offer a wide range of services, some of which are unique. We believe we are the first and possibly only clinic to offer Fallopian Tube Catheterisation in London, the Middle East and the Gulf region as an alternative to IVF for patients with blocked fallopian tubes. We really are experts in the work we carry out, so you know you can come to us with any problems you may be facing.

 

What is Ultrasound?

Ultrasound, also called sonography, uses sound waves to develop ultrasound images of what’s going on inside the body. An instrument called a transducer emits high-frequency sound, inaudible to human ears, and then records the echoes as the sound waves bounce back to determine the size, shape, and consistency of soft tissues and organs. Ultrasound imaging has many uses in medicine, from confirming and dating a pregnancy to diagnosing certain conditions and guiding doctors through precise medical procedures.

 

Benefits of Ultrasound?

Ultrasound images have been proven to be an excellent method of guiding minimally invasive procedures and as a very useful diagnostic instrument in Obstetrics. The images are used to examine the body in order to detect problems with muscles, tendons, ligaments, joints and soft tissue, often demonstrating movement, function and anatomy. Since the images are captured in real time, they demonstrate movement of internal tissues and organs, and allow physicians to observe the patient’s blood flow and heart valve functions.

 

Are there any risks?

Ultrasound is used routinely in clinical practices and considered harmless by the medical profession, and for this reason risks are not discussed. The procedure is also painless, non-invasive and does not require needles, injections, or incisions. Patients aren’t exposed to ionizing radiation, making the procedure safer than X-rays and CT scans. In fact, there are no known harmful effects when used and may be repeated as often as necessary.

 

If you are interested in partaking in an ultrasound scan in London with us, feel free to contact Regency International Clinic, London – World Class Independent Healthcare Centre in Central London.

Hysterosalpingogram (HSG) is a special X-ray Test to check if your fallopian tubes are blocked or not & assess the shape of the uterus.

Who should have HSG
HSG is an invaluable nonsurgical investigation in a woman with subfertility. It provides information about the inside of the womb and the fallopian tubes. It is less invasive and less expensive than laparoscopy. However there are situations where laparoscopy is preferred. An increased pregnancy rate has been associated with the cycles immediately following the HSG.

Importance of HSG Test.

• HSG provides information about uterine cavity & the presence of congenital uterine anomalies, fibroid tumors, adhesions within the womb (synechiae)

• The presence of fallopian tube disease such as blocked fallopian tubes, hydrosalpinx (Fluid collection within the tube), salpingitis isthmica nodosa
When to do HSG
It should be performed from a few days of menstruation to about 10 days from the start of menstruation. It is never done after 10 days unless no sexual intercourse has taken place after the 10days or effective contraception has been used during the menstrual cycle.
What Do the Results Mean?
If the x-ray shows a normal uterine shape, and the injected dye spills freely out from the ends of the Fallopian tube, then the test results are considered normal. Tubal factor infertility or abnormal uterine shape is unlikely to be the cause for your infertility.

What Happens If Results Are Abnormal?
If the dye shows an abnormally shaped uterus, or if the dye does not flow freely from the fallopian tubes, there may be a problem. If this happens, you may be advised to have another test such as laparoscopy or Hysteroscopy or recommend treatment with IVF or unblocking of the fallopian tubes.

Londra Gazette, one of London’s top Turkish newspapers paid a visit to our clinic. Below are excerpts from the Londra Gazette:

A North London clinic is promising to be a one-stop shop for a range of diagnostic services for men and women.

Regency International Clinic in Nile Street, Islington, specialises in a range of treatments including infertility and sexual dysfunction.

Among its range are “one-stop rapid services”, which mean that in many cases patients can be diagnosed, investigated and treatment on the same day.

Whether you are trying to start a family or seeking help with an illness, Regency’s medical director Henry Okosun promises to give you the space and discretion needed for your treatment.

ALTERNATIVE FERTILITY TREATMENTS

There are a range of gynaecology services offered by Regency to women and many will see you treated and on the road to recovery in a single visit.

Standard treatments such as ultrasounds can be found here, but additionally Regency describes itself as possibly the only clinic in London, the Middle East and the Gulf region to offer a radical alternative treatment to IVF for patients with blocked fallopian tubes, known as “Fallopian Tube Catheterisation”.

SERVICES FOR MEN

Regency has also expanded its services to men, covering such male health issues as impotence and infertility.

Sperm problems are a major cause of male infertility and can include low sperm, dead sperm or another kind of sperm abnormality. Infertility can also be caused by sexual problems.

Whatever the cause, Regency will investigate to find the underlying cause and decide on an appropriate treatment for you.

PHONE CONSULTATIONS

An innovative treatment option offered by Regency comes through its phone consultation service, which recognises that demanding work schedules and busy personal lives can make it difficult to fit in face-to-face meetings.

A 30-minute phone consultation with a highly trained consultant or private general practitioner is a particularly useful option for patients based for extended periods of time overseas.

And with Londra Gazete readers being offered a 20 percent discount, it is an opportunity not to be missed!

Regency International Clinic is open for walk-in visits 9am-6pm Monday to Friday, and for appointments only on Saturday.
