Typically, a hysterosalpingogram is done following the proliferative period of a woman's menstrual cycle. The length of time can range from a few days to a week. To make sure the patient is not pregnant, this is done.The cervix is kept visible by inserting a speculum into the vagina.
The cervix is then cleansed and a cannula is also placed after that. Through a cannula, the dye enters the uterus and fallopian tubes. Once the dye has passed, X-ray images are then taken. The interior makeup of the uterus and fallopian tube is visible in these photos.

HSG is frequently used for tubal assessment in females who have trouble getting pregnant.• This test locates any tubal obstruction.The pregnancy rate may also rise as a result of HSG.• This test provides the best description possible of the fallopian tubes, making it simple to spot any anomalies.
