Other procedures that can give your doctor some of the same information as HSG:
Laparoscopy —This surgical procedure requires general anesthesia.
Hysteroscopy —This procedure can give a detailed view of the inside of the uterus. However, it cannot show whether the fallopian tubes are blocked.
Sonohysterography —This technique uses ultrasound to show the inside of the uterus. Like hysteroscopy, it does not give complete information about the fallopian tubes.
The choice of a particular test will depend on several factors, including the reason for the evaluation, the healthcare provider's preference, and the patient's medical history. Your fertility specialist can help determine which test or procedure is right for you.
