Hysteroscopy scheduled at Mayo in 4 wks. On Zepbound for weight

Posted by sak2 @sak2, Dec 12, 2025

I'm 61 and postmenopausal. I have recently been having intermittent lower abdominal pain and intermittent discharge that is sometimes brown, but last night was light pink. Transvaginal ultrasound was done mid-Nov., and shows:
Endometrial Thickness: 7 mm
Cervix: Fluid visualized within the cervical canal. There is a complex structure with fluid fluid level in the region of cervix measuring 3 cm x 2.4 cm x 3 cm.
I have a hysteroscopy scheduled at Mayo, which is 8 hours away, so I want to make sure everything goes as smoothly as possible.
I am on Zepbound, so I called to ask whether I need to stop it prior to my visit. I was told I would not be under anesthesia for the procedure, but I have read that sometimes people are. I also want to be prepared if they need to put me under while I am there. How long do results take at Mayo? Does anyone out there have advice for me?

@sak2, did you find out from your care team at Mayo Clinic about whether or not Zepbound can be continued prior to your visit?

@colleenyoung not really. When I called, they told me I wouldn't be under anesthesia for the procedure. But I was really asking more if it would be possible while I'm there. Anyway I'm going to stop 10 days prior just like I did for a recent colonoscopy.
