A hysterometer is a medical device designed to measure the size of the uterus and assess the depth and direction of the cervix. It is typically a slender, graduated rod made of metal or plastic, inserted through the cervix into the uterus. Additionally, hysterometers are used for probing and dilating the uterus.
Hysterometers are mainly categorized into disposable and reusable types. Disposable hysterometers are designed for single use, ensuring sterility while measuring the uterine cavity's length and depth, thereby reducing the risk of cross-contamination. They are widely used in hospitals, clinics, ambulatory surgical centers, and diagnostic centers. These instruments are distributed through various channels, including direct sales, distributors and wholesalers, and online retail. They are commonly utilized by gynecologists, obstetricians, and other medical professionals.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
The sharp increase in U.S. tariffs and resulting trade tensions in spring 2025 are significantly impacting the medical equipment sector, especially for imported components used in imaging machines, surgical-grade stainless steel, and disposable plastics. With hospitals and clinics pushing back against price increases, manufacturers are facing margin pressure. The situation is further complicated by regulatory challenges, as switching suppliers due to tariffs often necessitates re-certification of medical devices, leading to delays in market entry. In response, companies are mitigating risks by dual-sourcing key components, ramping up domestic production of standardized items, and accelerating research into more cost-effective materials.
The hysterometer market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides hysterometer market statistics, including the hysterometer industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with the hysterometer market share, detailed hysterometer market segments, market trends, and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the hysterometer industry. This hysterometer market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenarios of the industry.
The hysterometer market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $1.54 billion in 2024 to $1.66 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.4%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to the rise in demand for precision measurement, increasing healthcare spending, the rise in the aging population, the increase in women's health awareness, and the expansion of gynecological diagnostics.
The hysterometer market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.27 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.2%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to rising demand for diagnostics, rising prevalence of endometrial disorders, increasing investment in women's health technologies, expanding healthcare access, and increasing government support for women's health. Major trends in the forecast period include technological advancements, integration of AI in uterine measurement devices, a shift toward disposable hysterometers, adoption of IoT-enabled diagnostic tools, and development of robotic-assisted diagnostic devices.
The forecast of 8.2% growth over the next five years indicates a slight reduction of 0.1% from the previous estimate for this market.This reduction is primarily due to the impact of tariffs between the US and other countries. This is likely to directly affect the US through supply chain disruptions for graduated uterine sounds and disposable measuring sheaths, sourced from key regions such as the UK and Belgium, which could lead to delayed gynecological diagnostics and increased procedure costs.The effect will also be felt more widely due to reciprocal tariffs and the negative effect on the global economy and trade due to increased trade tensions and restrictions.
The increasing prevalence of gynecological diseases is expected to drive the growth of the hysterometer market. Gynecological diseases include disorders affecting the female reproductive system, such as infections, fibroids, endometriosis, and cancers. The rising incidence of these conditions is attributed to factors such as an aging population, lifestyle changes, increased awareness and detection, environmental influences, hormonal imbalances, and heightened stress levels. As gynecological diseases become more common, the demand for accurate diagnostic tools such as hysterometers is growing. These devices assist healthcare professionals in assessing uterine positioning and detecting abnormalities, leading to earlier diagnoses and improved management of these conditions. For example, in February 2024, the National Library of Medicine, a US-based biomedical library and national health resource, reported that excess mortality rates for gynecological cancer increased from 3.30% in 2021 to 8.42% in 2022. As a result, the rising prevalence of gynecological diseases is fueling the expansion of the hysterometer market.
The rise in healthcare spending is expected to contribute to the growth of the hysterometer market. Healthcare spending refers to the total costs associated with medical services, supplies, and treatments aimed at preserving or improving health. The increase in healthcare expenditure is driven by factors such as an aging population, the rising prevalence of chronic diseases, advancements in medical technology, growing demand for healthcare services, and higher treatment and medication costs. Greater investment in healthcare supports the development of advanced hysterometers by funding research, innovation, and improved manufacturing processes. This leads to enhanced uterine measurement accuracy, better diagnostics, and improved patient care. For instance, in July 2024, the American Medical Association, a US-based professional association for physicians and medical students, reported that health spending in the United States grew by 4.1% in 2022, reaching $4.5 trillion or $13,493 per capita. Consequently, the rise in healthcare spending is contributing to the growth of the hysterometer market.
Leading companies in the hysterometer market are focusing on developing advanced products, such as single-use hysteroscopes, to improve patient comfort and enhance procedural efficiency. A single-use hysteroscope is a disposable medical device designed for minimally invasive diagnostic and therapeutic procedures within the uterine cavity. For example, in June 2022, UroViu Corporation, a US-based medical equipment manufacturer, introduced the Hystero-V, a new disposable hysteroscope. This device is designed to be compatible with UroViu's Always Ready endoscopy platform and features a hydrophilic coating for easier insertion and improved visualization during intrauterine examinations. The Hystero-V enhances procedural efficiency and patient comfort by eliminating the need for reprocessing equipment, providing a cost-effective solution for healthcare providers in gynecology and urology.
