What to expect for hsg procedure?

Dr. Neil Halin answered

Specializes in Interventional Radiology

Like a pelvic exam: The doctor will usually use a speculum. Then they will put in a catheter that goes into the cervix. They then inject contrast and take images. You may experience cramping during and after the procedure. You might see a small amount of spotting after the procedure.
