Patient's question:
I have been married for five years. Previously, due to work reasons, I didn't have children. However, this year, I want to have children, but I haven't been able to get pregnant yet. My friend said that an hysterosalpingogram (HSG) can be done for a thorough check-up, so I would like to have an HSG. Hello, does this hysterosalpingogram have a therapeutic effect?Doctor's answer:
Hysterosalpingography is first and foremost a diagnostic examination, primarily used to confirm certain conditions. It can assess whether the uterine cavity is normal in shape and whether both fallopian tubes are unobstructed. If there is partial blockage or mild adhesion, it can help to clear the blockage during the imaging process. This examination should be performed 3 to 7 days after the menstrual period has ended.
