At Elite Diagnostics, we provide advanced Hysterosalpingography (HSG) X-ray procedures to help evaluate the health of the uterus and fallopian tubes. This specialized diagnostic test is commonly used in cases of infertility, recurrent miscarriages, or other gynecological concerns.
What is an HSG X-Ray?
Hysterosalpingography (HSG) is an imaging procedure that uses X-rays and a contrast dye to examine the uterus and fallopian tubes. It helps identify blockages, abnormalities, or structural issues that could affect fertility or reproductive health.
When is an HSG X-Ray Recommended?
Your doctor may recommend an HSG if you are experiencing:
- Difficulty conceiving (infertility).
- Recurrent miscarriages.
- Suspected uterine abnormalities like fibroids or polyps.
- Fallopian tube blockages or scarring, often due to infections or past surgeries.
What to Expect During the Procedure
- Preparation: You may be asked to schedule the procedure shortly after your menstrual period but before ovulation to avoid the possibility of pregnancy.
- During the Procedure:
- You will lie on an X-ray table, and a speculum will be gently inserted into your vagina.
- A thin catheter is used to introduce a contrast dye into the uterus and fallopian tubes.
- X-ray images are taken as the dye flows through the reproductive organs.
- Duration: The procedure typically takes 15–30 minutes and is minimally invasive.
- Post-Procedure: Some mild cramping or spotting may occur, but most patients resume normal activities the same day.
