Is it not advisable to get pregnant immediately after an iodine oil contrast examination?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Self-reported: Due to iodine contrast, X-rays involve ionizing radiation, so it is generally recommended to wait at least three months before conception. Of course, some people may conceive one month later without any issues. In your case, if it was an iodine contrast examination, there is a certain chance it could lead to fallopian tube adhesion. Therefore, after the examination, it is necessary to receive intravenous anti-inflammatory treatment for several days or take oral anti-inflammatory medication. If you have already conceived, regular prenatal check-ups later on should suffice. Some people who conceive one month later also experience no abnormalities.
