What are the differences between tubal irrigation and tubal contrast?

Patient's question:

Hello, could you please explain the difference between tubal hydrotubation and tubal contrastography? I have been diagnosed with tubal disease. Is tubal hydrotubation better, or is tubal contrastography better? So, what are the differences between tubal hydrotubation and tubal contrastography?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, you should not have sexual intercourse within one week before the fallopian tube hydrotubation examination, otherwise it may cause surgical infection. You recently had sexual intercourse, so you cannot have the fallopian tube examination this month. It is recommended that you have the examination within three to one week after the next menstrual period.
