Should fallopian tube examination be done before or after menstruation?

Patient's question:

I have been trying to conceive for two years and have undergone various examinations, all of which were normal, except for the fallopian tube examination. I would like to know when to check if the fallopian tubes are blocked—should it be before or after the menstrual period?

Doctor's answer:

Hysterosalpingography, it is recommended to go to a regular hospital for careful examination and treatment within 3 to 7 days after menstruation is clean. It is best to go to the hospital on an empty stomach for blood tests to check for abnormalities before undergoing hysterosalpingography. Strictly prohibit sexual activity before the surgery. After the surgery, symptomatic anti-inflammatory treatment should be given. For patients with fallopian tube problems, in addition to taking medication, it is also necessary to pay attention to personal nursing training, such as paying more attention to personal hygiene of the private parts, avoiding sexual activity during medication, and finally reminding female patients to have regular follow-up examinations.
