Hysterosalpingography, commonly referred to as the HSG test, is a specialized radiological procedure used to examine the uterus and fallopian tubes, particularly in women facing difficulty in conceiving. The test helps determine whether the fallopian tubes are open and whether the uterine cavity has any structural abnormalities such as polyps, fibroids, adhesions, or congenital defects. During the procedure, a contrast dye is gently introduced through the cervix into the uterine cavity, and a series of X-ray images are taken to observe the flow of the dye. If the dye passes freely through the tubes, it indicates that they are patent; blockage may be identified if the dye does not pass beyond a certain point. The test is usually scheduled after menstruation and before ovulation to ensure safety and accurate results. Mild cramping may occur during the procedure, but it typically subsides quickly. HSG plays a significant role in infertility evaluation, as it provides valuable information that helps guide further treatment planning. Early and accurate assessment through HSG can improve the direction and effectiveness of fertility management strategies.
