Why You Need a Colonoscopy

Colonoscopy is recommended for several reasons:

Colon Cancer Screening

It is a powerful tool for detecting and preventing colorectal cancer, one of the most common and treatable forms of cancer. Early detection can be lifesaving.

Diagnostic Tool

A colonoscopy investigates gastrointestinal symptoms, including abdominal pain, changes in bowel habits, and unexplained bleeding.

Polyp Removal

Any precancerous polyps found can be removed during the procedure, reducing the risk of future cancer development.

What to Expect During a Colonoscopy

Before the procedure, you will receive instructions on how to prepare your colon. During the colonoscopy:

You will be given sedation to ensure your comfort during the procedure.
A flexible, thin tube with a camera (colonoscope) is inserted through the rectum, allowing the physician to examine your entire colon.
Any polyps or abnormal tissue discovered can be removed or biopsied for further examination.
The procedure typically takes 30 to 60 minutes, and you'll spend some time in recovery before returning home.
