hsg tomorrow

amcrdamcrd member
in TTC after 35

HSG tomorrow and I'm a little anxious. They tell me to take 800 mg Motrin 1 hour prior to. Have a 4 hour drive to get there and have to leave at about 6am!

The things we do...for what we desire SO much!

Any feedback on HSG? Had a friend tell me it was very painful? And have heard it was no worse than IUI cramping? Guess we all handle discomfort differently!

    I didn't have a bad or discomforting experience. What little discomfort I had was brief.

    Good luck

    Mine was very painful but it only lasted a minute or so.  I got pg 2 months after having it. My Dr. was convinced it cleaned out some mucus! Good luck!

    I have my HSG Friday, have not heard about pain and have no special instructions from doc.  But yes, the things we do and so worth it. I have also heard of others suddenly getting pregnant after the HSG, well that is definitely great news!!

    HSG Folo,

    Anyone here have HSG and they found blockage or scarring? If so did you have success in clearing that up? (not sure you can do anything about scarring.)

    Before I had my septum removed it hurt sooooo bad.  The second one wasn't as bad, but I also took Valium and Vicodin Embarrassed 

    Bring a pad with you.  The first time I didn't and they gave me a big ole nasty hospital pad.

    Good Luck!!!
