Hysterosalpingogram (HSG)

Patient's question:

Over the years, my husband and I have been trying to conceive, but haven't been successful. Recently, I took the time to visit the hospital for a check-up. My husband had no issues, but they said my fallopian tubes are blocked. I would like to ask: about the examination and surgery for blocked fallopian tubes

Doctor's answer:

Hysteroscopic and Laparoscopic Examination: Hysteroscopy and laparoscopy are minimally invasive surgical procedures that use a fiberoptic endoscope to examine and treat the uterine cavity. This is currently the world's leading examination and treatment technology, with high accuracy and safety. It is mostly used for examining difficult tubal conditions or tubal contrast examinations that cannot be diagnosed by other methods.
Tubal Contrast Examination: Tubal contrast examination is an X-ray-based hysterosalpingography that involves injecting contrast medium into the uterine cavity and fallopian tubes through a catheter. Using an X-ray diagnostic device, X-ray scans and images are taken based on the contrast medium's visibility in the fallopian tubes and pelvic cavity to understand whether the tubes are patent.
