Miscarriage/Pregnancy Loss

HSG-What to expect?

Hi ladies, I went to my Dr for my post op after my d & c on 8-5, this is my second consecutive loss. He recommended an HSG test, have you had this test done? Does it hurt? Did you get answers? When did you have it done? (specific time in your cycle) Any info on this would be really helpful...
Not sure if this has been asked before but couldn't find any recent threads regarding this, TIA!!

Re: HSG-What to expect?

  • I had an HSG done last year due to infertility. I think you are supposed to have it done after your period but before you ovulate. Mine didn't hurt. There was just some pressure. My tubes were open so that may be why it didn't hurt so bad. I had read horror stories on the Internet so I was terrified! The test normally is done to make sure your tubes aren't blocked and to check for uterine abnormalities. I had two fibroids they caught on ultrasound so the HSG was to let them know if maybe that was impeding me from getting pregnant. My dr didn't think the fibroids were a concern. I did end up getting pregnant twice through fertility treatments and I miscarried twice. I'm going for my D&C tomorrow. My fertility doctor did say that if they can't find the cause, she might do another HSG because I had gotten it done somewhere else. I definitely think it's worth it if it will give some answers.
  • I am so sorry for your loss and I hope everything goes well tomorrow and you have a quick recovery. Thank you so much for all the helpful information! XO
