Hsg Posted: 11-10-05 00:29am
Hi, I had to have 2 hsg's when I started
my infertility work-up. It's not the
most enjoyable thing, especially if you
have cervical stenosis, which I have.
You might want to talk to your doctor
about prescribing you a mild
anti-inflammatory. I was given motrin
and darvocet. The procedure is
uncomfortable. It will feel like very
severe menstrual cramping. The
radiologist had a hard time inserting the
catheter because I had a huge
fibroid/polyp that was blocking my right
ovary, which is considered the stronger of
my ovaries because of the way my cervix is
tilted. I had surgery to remove them.
When they initially found the
fibroids/polyp's I had to have a pelvic
ulstrasound and another hsg but this time
instead of x-rays they used ultrasound.
I was recently placed on clomid since I
still haven't conceived. Hope this
helps, let me know if you have any other
questions...
P.S. If your partner wants to hold your
hand trust me it helps to have them in
there, but make sure that they have a good
breakfast and don't get faint at the sight
of blood becuase it can be a little
bloody...My husband almost did a face
stand and had to leave the room to get
some air...I still tease him about it....

i am not a 100 percent sure but if one is
blocked you still can get pregnant fom the
other one.... you switch sides every other
month... mine a are not blocked but i did
have scar tissue, and i had a lap. done to
get rid of it... and what ever else needed
to be done while they were in there... it
took a long time to get to where i am
almost 3 and half years. and now finally i
might have a chance... hang in there and
my dad always told me you have to lead a
horse to water... which means you have
push. insist, it's hard an frustrating i
know.... good luck....

i forgot to tell you that in some intenses
you can become pregnant through a hsg
because now the use an oil base dye which
is more concentrated they the water based
dye, if they are by chanced blocked the
dye can try and push through the tubes
allowing them to open. and they say that
the percentage rate of pregnancy are
higher now....
Back in 2000 my husband and i started ttc
a second child. After a year of .v.e.r.y
irregular(maybe 2 or 3) periods and no
positive results i consulted with my gyn.
We did many test. The last of them was the
hsg. Through this we found that both of my
tubes were blocked, one more heavily than
the other.
