What is a Hysterosalpingogram (HSG) test?

This test involves having a dye inserted by a thin tube into the cervix. The dye is pushed into the fallopian tubes and uterus, pictures are taken by x-ray as the dye passes through. It usually takes around 30 minutes. The test is carried out to find the cause of a woman not being able to conceive.

It helps to see if fallopian tubes are blocked by infection, which has caused scarring and prevented pregnancy in the past. Sometimes the process of inserting the dye will push through and unblock the tube.

Women who have had numerous miscarriages or painful periods may find to have an abnormal uterus secondary to fibroids, polyps, injury or adhesions which all can be seen during this procedure. You could also have a HSG after having a Tubal Ligation to see if the procedure has been successful.

Some studies have indicated a slight increase in fertility when a HSG has been performed, lasting 3 - 4 months after.

Your consultant will perform your test as well as a radiographer, who will be able to talk you and explain the process while doing it. You will be offered pain relief, as it may cause mild to moderate pain. It is also advised to have some at home.

After your procedure

We advise that you have someone with you to drive you home, as you may experience abdominal cramps. You may return to work when you feel able. Your consultant will inform you of post procedure instructions before you leave the hospital.

What our patients say

" "I am extremely happy with results from my breast augmentation. After several consultations with Dr. A EL Gawad, he made me feel at ease and more than confident in the size that I had chose. He was really helpful and realistic during this time. He's always on hand to answer any queries personally. The day of surgery for me was very daunting but all the staff at Pall Mall & Mr. EL Gawd himself really looked after me. The anesthetist was brilliant. This is something i would now recommend to anyone feeling the way I felt for so many years. Mr. EL Gawad is fabulous at what he does, they are perfect in size for me, he really cared and wanted me to be sure in the process I was about to go through. The aftercare, the appointments following seeing the results I am really pleased. Pall Mall Newton le Willows was a great place to have my surgery. The anesthetist was brilliant, the nurses very caring and on hand checking every 15 mins after my op. Would definitely recommend.""

Patient at Pall Mall Medical, 11/06/2017

" I've wanted a breast augmentation since I was 17 (I am now 32) and last year I finally decided to bite the bullet and treat myself . Today I've come home from Pall Mall Medical in Newton Le-Willows feeling happy and feminine. My experience although short was fantastic. The nurses Bev, Steph and Jane really are a great asset (excuse the pun!) to the company. From the word go they put me at ease as I was really nervous about the anaesthetic and procedure itself . I honestly needn't have worried, I was in great hands. The anaesthetist was brilliant with me and ran through all the anaesthetic procedure. I actually enjoyed the experience of being put under! Even though I'm not yet 24 hours post op I feel so much more confident thanks to Mr Prasad and his team. I'm a firm believer in that life is too short and we all have to do what makes us happy, so thank you Pall Mall Medical, you've made me really happy! "

" At the pre-op, the lady I saw was very helpful and lovely. She made me feel at ease. Was really grateful for the advice she gave to get a good sports bra."
