Is it safe to have an hsg femvue test while i have a uti from group b strep? could this infect womb?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Maybe risky: GBS mostly resides in the vagina, and might cause fallopian tube infection if flushed into the tubes when Femvue is injected. Make sure your doctor knows of your GBS infection, also the radiologist who may be actually doing the test. It may be safe, especially if your infection has been treated for a few days. But make sure they know; better safe than sorry.
