Trying to Get Pregnant

HSG not all clear....

I had my HSG done last Thursday and at that time, my OBGYN said she thought my one (only) tube looked clear but she just left a vm saying that the radiologist disagrees and thinks I am blocked.  She said we should talk about using a camera or sending me to REI.  Someone please explain what goes on with a camera and what entails a visit with REI?  My heart sunk, as I really thought this would be our month.

  • I don't have any experience with this, but I hope everything turns out ok for you.
  • I also don't have any experience with this but really hope you get some answers and a plan soon.  

    From what I have seen on the board I think (and please correct me if I'm wrong ladies) that with a camera the Dr. can look inside your tube to find out what (if anything) is blocking it and where it is blocked.  From there I think there are treatment options depending on what they find.  

    By REI do you mean RE (Reproductive Endocrinologist)?  They are fertility specialists who help women who are having trouble TTC get pregnant and stay pregnant.  A step up from your OB who will provides care during pregnancy.

    Good luck with everything :)

  • I don't have experience with blocked tubes but We were recently told that we will need to be referred to a RE. As PP said, it's a reproductive endocrinologist. Basically its a specialist in baby making. You'll be in good hands. Feel free to PM me if you want. Best of luck with getting your tubes cleared!

  • I am sending well wishes your way. I hope that everything works out in your favor. I am sorry that I can't offer any advice or information either. Maybe the ladies on the Trouble Trying to Conceive board can help?
