Guest guest Posted March 24, 2001 Report Share Posted March 24, 2001 I have got a question. May be one of you could answer it. What is that HSG exactly about? It is to unblocked the tube? or for something else? I am waiting for my period to phone for my app at the hospital. This is my second period since every thing happened.

Guest guest Posted March 24, 2001 Report Share Posted March 24, 2001 Mapi, The HSG test is where they run dye through the tubes and uterus to see for any scarring, etc... it does not fix tubes but can open them up a little if blocked with blood from the ep... many women get pg a few months after having an HSG>. I hope this helped some! lisa r T.T.F.N. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 24, 2001 Report Share Posted March 24, 2001 Mapi I know it is a hard when the day comes around marking our loss. I wish there was something I could say to make you feel better. After my ep I can honestly say I didn't hold out much hope for pg. I thought all kinds of things, that my body had betrayed me or even that maybe it was " a sign " that I shouldn't have kids and so on. It wasn't until I began reading postings from here that I started having some hope again. I hope you find some too. I think that is " the gift " these ladies have given me here...hope. I hope you are able to find some. There are times I think I am doing ok and than there are times it just hits me out of nowhere. I know it can just drain you of all your hopes and happiness but hang in there. We are here for you. I am going for my hsg this Thursday (this is my 3rd cycle) It is suppose to check for any blockages in tube. From what I understand they put a dye in your tube and see if it flows through properly. I heard some people find this painful, others find it alittle uncomfortable but ok. Test itself doesn't actually last long. I have been anxious to have hsg done to find the statis of the other tube, I am hoping it will bring me alittle piece of mine. Good luck and just take it slow. --- mapichocolate@... wrote: > I have got a question. May be one of you could > answer it. > What is that HSG exactly about?

Guest guest Posted March 24, 2001 Report Share Posted March 24, 2001 Hi Mapi, The purpose of the HSG isn't to unblock the tubes, but rather to see whether or not they are blocked. However the test does seem to have the side effect of increasing fertility for some women..but the reason as to why isn't exactly known for sure, but could possibly be that if there was a small blockage in the tube it may have been pushed out by the dye. You may find this site helpful to answer your questions. It gives a brief overview of the procedure...there are a ton of other websites out there describing the procedure too...just do a search on " hysterosalpingography " , if you want to learn more. http://www.webcom.com/dsable/hsg.html -AmyR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
