What is the specific examination of hysterosalpingography? Is it painful?

When checking hysterosalpingography for the first time, many people may not understand or even know what it is. However, they must know that it is about women because only women have fallopian tubes. In fact, hysterosalpingography is a kind of examination for female infertility patients. What does it specifically include and does it hurt? Coincidentally, the editor has prepared it for you, let's take a look.

What are the examination items of hysterosalpingography?

1. Check the permeability of the fallopian tube. The permeability of the fallopian tube is checked through the above judgment. This examination is only applicable to the examination of fallopian tube adhesions. It is a manual operation and the volume of the uterus cannot be seen. The misdiagnosis rate is relatively high. Therefore, this method of judging the fallopian tube is usually not completely reliable. It is better to use it now.

2. Hysterosalpingography can detect fallopian tube lesions with an accuracy rate of over 98%. Hysterosalpingography uses an X-ray diagnostic device to perform X-ray fluoroscopy and radiography. Based on the development of the contrast agent in the fallopian tubes and pelvic cavity, it is possible to understand whether the fallopian tubes are unobstructed, the degree of patency, the specific site of blockage, and the morphology of the uterine cavity, so as to make a correct diagnosis.

3. Hysteroscopic and laparoscopic examination. Hysteroscopic and laparoscopic technology can perform intuitive examination and treatment of the uterus and abdominal cavity at the same time. During the examination, uterine lesions such as uterine polyps and uterine adhesions can also be detected and given appropriate treatment.

Hysterosalpingography is also a minimally invasive surgery and the pain level is generally acceptable. The specific situation varies from person to person. There is usually some discomfort after hysterosalpingography, which will gradually ease after half an hour. This is related to the individual's sensitivity to pain.

There will be vaginal bleeding and abdominal discomfort within three to two days after salpingography, but it usually does not exceed a week. If you feel any special discomfort after angiography, you must go to the hospital for timely treatment and do not treat it on your own.

The degree of pain during salpingography is mainly related to the following factors:

1. Doctor's proficiency: It plays a decisive role in the pain of hysterosalpingography. Hysterosalpingography is a professional examination of the patency of the fallopian tubes. Only doctors who specialize in infertility have more patient data.

2. Whether the patient cooperates or not: Some patients do not cooperate with the doctor. Sometimes they are shy or embarrassed, which seriously affects the doctor's operation and thus slows down the speed.

3. Uterine factors: The patient already has uterine diseases, such as uterine fibroids, congenitally small uterus, uterine cavity adhesions, or a tight cervical opening and excessive uterine curvature, which increase the difficulty of intubation and slow down the process. If the patient lacks experience, angiography may not be possible.

The above is what I have brought to you about the hysterosalpingography examination. Is it painful? I believe that through my description, everyone must have a certain understanding of the hysterosalpingography examination. In addition to infertile patients, women with abnormal uterine bleeding, fallopian tube recanalization, uterine tumors and other diseases also need to undergo hysterosalpingography. Please pay attention.
