First HSG
  Posted: Tue Nov 27, 2012 8:06 am
Post subject: I've had an HSG , it was nothing like as bad as I'd been told, just had a little cramping when the dye went in
Couple of things to remember is tubes can spasm so if no dye goes into the tubes at all they've probably spasmed and to help stop that happening take some ibuprofen and buscopan (if you're in the US its a med to stop cramping from irritable bowel not sure what your equivalent would be but the active ingredient is hyoscine butylbromide if you can find something with that in it should have the same effect ) about 45 mins before and just try and relax 
You may get a little spotting after so take a pad
If your tubes do spasm and don't fill then a laproscopy can confirm if they're open or spasmed as they can physically see the tubes on that, also a procedure called tubal cannulation which can be done either during a lap or during a HSG can often push small blockages out with thye help of the dye , Good luck xx
