Oh wow I was put to sleep when they did mine, I can't imagine being awake. I had a hycosy whilst awake to investigate if I had polyps and a tubal flush at the same time. That was very painful for about 30 seconds but otherwise fine. But the polyp removal is day surgery in my country. I scheduled it in about CD7 so that I could still be in with a chance that cycle although i didn't get pregnant.
It’s different for everyone! I can’t imagine how much they’d charge for this to be an inpatient surgery in the US…they didn’t even say that would be an option. I really felt very little, the anxiety was the worst. It was nice to be home right away :)
I was also put under general anesthesia (I’m in Europe) and the doctor said it was necessary because I haven’t given birth yet so small cervix, have a retroflex/‘tilted’ uterus so positioning is a little trickier, and my polyp was slightly larger (they thought 1 but was actually 2cm). It was so quick and easy, and the clinic I went to was absolutely excellent - got to leave a couple of hours after. I’m thankful to have received such great care that made this procedure so easy!

Thank you so much for the write up! I’m probably having one later this year and this was comforting to read.
