Hi, just looking for your thoughts on whether I am right to worry about this or if it's all in my head (I am a bit neurotic so could be!)
I had an internal ultra sound yesterday and they didn't put anything over the probe they put inside you. I've had it done twice before, once in a different clinic and once in the same hospital, and both times they put a latex cover over the probe, whereas this time they did not. Do you think this was an oversight or could they feasibly clean the probe between scans? Just a bit concerned about hygiene. I should have questioned it at the time but I didn't as the scan was to confirm a miscarriage and my mind was not focused on it. Has been playing in my thoughts since though.
Have any of you had internal ultrasounds without the probe being covered? Is it silly to call the hospital and ask? Thanks for your help.
