When To Have An HSG X-ray After Tubal Reversal Surgery

When To Have An HSG X-ray After Tubal Reversal Surgery

A tubal reversal patient of Dr. Berger's and member of Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center's message board asks other members and the staff if she should have the HSG x-ray the same day if she received a positive on her ovulation predictor kit. The answer is "No". The HSG x-ray should be performed after your period and prior to ovulation - usually between cycle days 7 through 10. It should never be performed after your LH surge or ovulation, since it could interrupt a very early conception.

You should not have the HSG when you are ovulating. The HSG should be done when you are finished with your period, but prior to ovulation

What cycle day are you on?

It sounds like you should wait until next month for the HSG - usually done between cycle days 7 and 10.

This is # 1 on our HSG page (on our website page: http://www.tubal-reversal.net/post-tubal-reversal-hysterosalpingogram-hsg.htm )

An HSG should be performed after your period and prior to ovulation – usually between cycle days 7 through 10. It should never be performed after your LH surge or ovulation, since it could interrupt a very early conception.

Well, if you are sure you got a positive on the OPK it is better to wait to next month I think.

What does your OB/GYN think?
