HSG and Clomid???

Hello Ladies,


I'm thinking of bitting the bullet and doing the HSG in December. My doctor does then days 6-10.


My doctor is also increasing my clomid to 100mg in December if I don't get a bfp this month.


Has anyone out there done an HSG and clomid day 5-9 at the same time? My doctor made it sound like that I might have to stop clomid to do the HSG, but that doesn't sound right.


Thoughts?

I am new to Clomid, but I have had an HSG. It doesn't make sense for you to need to stop the Clomid, though. They do the HSG early in the cycle to ensure that you aren't pg when they do the test.

She sure made it sound like both wouldn't be possible. I will ask the RE she referred me to for the HSG. It doesn't seem like the clomid would matter, you are right, its early in the cycle.

I just did an HSG today, but if I couldnt' make an appt. I was going to do it next month the same time as Clomid. My doctor didn't say that would be a problem.

It's totally fine. I did an HSG last month, along with Clomid (100 mg, days 3-7). My RE said it wasn't an issue at all. Good luck!

Amy-


Wow, you're lucky! My HSG hurt something awful! Maybe the Radiologist doing mine wasn't as gently or something. I swear it felt like a 5 minute long contraction. Ouch!
