HSG (Hysterosalpingogram)

HSG or Hysterosalpingogram is an X-ray imaging test commonly used to evaluate the uterus and fallopian tubes, especially in infertility assessment. During the procedure, contrast dye is introduced into the uterus through the cervix, and X-ray images are taken to observe the shape of the uterine cavity and the patency of the fallopian tubes. This test helps detect blocked fallopian tubes, uterine abnormalities, adhesions, fibroids, or congenital defects. HSG is usually performed after menstruation and before ovulation. Mild cramping or discomfort may be experienced during the procedure, but it provides valuable diagnostic information.
