Uterus Film – HSG Hysterosalpingography)

Hysterosalpingography is a method of filling the uterus and tubes with a contrast agent, which can be seen in x-ray films, and radiologically showing whether the tubes are open and intrauterine status. It is called “uterus film”.

The contrast agent is introduced into the uterus through a cannula, which allows the organs to be seen on the x-ray film.

For this method to be applied in a patient, the first week after the end of menstruation should be preferred.

Abdominal (abdominal) film is taken before the contrast agent is injected into the uterus and tubes. The patient is placed on the processing table in the obstetrics examination position. Since the drug to be administered will go into the abdomen, the rules of sterility must be very careful.

The vagina is opened with a device called a speculum and the cervix (cervix) is cleaned. Then the cervix (cervix) is held with the help of a lower and cannula is passed through it. Through this cannula, the contrast agent is slowly introduced into the uterus and an X-ray film is taken. The film is evaluated immediately and the process is repeated if there is no desired sharpness or image. When the contrast medium is introduced into the tubes, the patient may experience slight pain. If the tubes are open, the contrast agent spreads into the pelvic cavity.

If HSG is normal, both tubes are open and the shape of the uterus is normal. If there is a mass in the uterus (such as fibroids or polyps), or if the tubes are closed, this creates an abnormal appearance in HSG.

It is also important to note that the open monitoring of the tubes in HSG is more reliable than the closed monitoring. In other words, the monitored tube in HSG may actually be open, and the way to understand it is to evaluate the tubes by laparoscopy.

HSG can sometimes cause the closed tube to be opened through the uterus. Therefore, spontaneous conception rates increase after HSG.

The patient may occasionally experience cramps for 1-2 days after the procedure. Vaginal bleeding may occur. Painkillers given by the doctor should be taken. In case of any unexpected situation, consult a doctor.
