HSG update

Ladies, just got back from my HSG. It was very painful but only for 3 minutes so all worth it!


I will see the doctor tomorrow to read the result. It says that both tubes are imaged and appear normal in calibre but it also says there is a spill of contrast medium into the peritoneal cavity . ANYBODY ANY IDEA WHAT THAT MEANS????

Hi! I'm a nurse, not a doctor, so just want to throw that out there in the first place! HA HA! But, I have been a nurse for about 14 years and from what I have learned from CT scan and other procedures that use contrast mediums, when it says 'the contrast medium has spilled into the peritoneal cavity' it usually means just what it says, that some of the contrast has spilled into your abdominal area *(non-medical term for peritoneal cavity) and it is a good thing in your case and means that your tube is open!!! YEAH!!! :) The end of your uterine tube is open and thus the contrast will spill into the peritoneum! Good for you! Looks like you should be good to go for another baby! :)

Good luck and hope this info helps! I would still talk to your doctor about it and see if he can give you a better answer/explanation.

Con grats and thank so much for updating~! i was thinking of you!

i assume that the note was just saying the the dye spilled inside you, and is NBD, it will be reabsorbed i assume. just a note for them in case they see it in there later?? but i am not an expert or anything. i just know i have heard that said for other things. i get contrast dye for my MRI's.

GL!!

From what my doc told me that's exactly what they want to happen- for the dye to travel up the tubes then spill out into the abdomen. It means your tubes are open! Congrats!!! The dye will just be absorbed by your body. Nbd. Hope this clears the way for a bfp!!

LOL, i know, i alwasy wonder if Ddh hates all the BDg, but i think he is a pretty good sport !!

i got 3 more tests, so i have 4 total. i am wondering if i should test - i think i will hold my pee for another hour or so, and if this postting doesnt turn to flow, i will test. i NEVER spot, so i am hopeful, but at the same time i am getting pretty dejected. if AF would just come, i would be fine, bt the not knowing is making me very sad. !!
