This video is in Telugu and Dr. Sandhya Rani, Senior Consultant in Obstetrics and Gynecology at Aster Women and Children Hospital, provides a detailed explanation of the Hysterosalpingography (HSG) test. It is a good resource for women who are trying to conceive and want to learn more about this test.
Hysterosalpingography (HSG) is an X-ray imaging test that can help your doctor see the inside of your uterus and fallopian tubes. It is a common test used to diagnose infertility.
Why is HSG done?
HSG is done to check for any blockage in your fallopian tubes, which can prevent sperm from reaching an egg. It can also be used to check for other problems in your uterus, such as polyps or fibroids.
HSG procedure
During an HSG, a thin, flexible tube is inserted into your vagina and cervix. A dye is then injected through the tube, which will show up on X-ray images. HSG is a safe and effective test that can help diagnose infertility. It is also a relatively inexpensive test.
HSG is usually done during the first week of your menstrual cycle. You may experience some cramping or discomfort during the test.
You can resume your normal activities immediately after the test.
