Does tubal contrast affect pregnancy?

Patient's question:

Pelvic inflammatory disease for more than ten years with associated fluid accumulation. Today, I went to the hospital for a hysterosalpingogram. Will the hysterosalpingogram interfere with getting pregnant?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, tubal contrast cannot lead to immediate pregnancy because tubal contrast is performed under radiation. This X-ray radiation may interfere with embryo development and growth, potentially causing fetal malformations. Therefore, it is generally recommended that you do not attempt to conceive within three months after the procedure. I suggest you start taking folic acid supplements, focus on conditioning, and pay attention to maintaining warmth. The above information can serve as a reference.
