Diagnosis of hematometra involves a combination of clinical evaluation and imaging studies:
- Physical examination: A pelvic exam can reveal an enlarged, tender uterus. - Ultrasound: This is the primary imaging modality used to visualize the accumulation of fluid within the uterus. - MRI: In some cases, magnetic resonance imaging can provide more detailed information. - Hysteroscopy: This allows direct visualization of the uterine cavity and can help identify the cause of the obstruction.
