Hi Gals,
I have to have a pelvic and transvaginal ultrasound...is there any way this interanl u/s could hurt my j-pouch in any way?

Thanks in advance :-)

I've had 9 ultrasounds between my two pregnancies and had no problems. I did a little pain due to scar tissue during, but nothing i couldn't handle!

no I had that T/V ultrasound a couple of weeks ago. I didn't realize that they would go up into my vagina with a wand like that.........ewwwww. Gross but no problems.
The last ultrasound I had was 17 years ago when I had my son, things have changed.

I had one today and didnt hurt at all. I did feel just a little pressure on my pouch when she would move it around but nothing that I was concerned about.

I had one a few weeks ago and it was fine. I didn't feel any pressure on my pouch.

I had to have one over the summer when I was hospitalized for my adhesion/obstruction. They were checking to make sure it wasn't a cyst that was causing all that pain.

It was a quick and painless procedure. My period did start a day after- it was due anyway but it came a few days earlier.

Good luck!

I had transvag ultrasound about a year ago and I had no problems. My gastro just told me to let them know about the pouch before they started anything and tell them to make sure they didn't push too hard on anything.

Hope this helps.

I've had 2 in the past 6 months. It was nothing, and certainly not anything that would hurt the pouch. They actually have you insert it-then they move it around slightly, but not too much. Painless! And, I'm a wimp.

Good luck
