The best time to schedule a hysterosalpingogram (HSG) exam is usually between days 5 and 12 of your menstrual cycle.
This timing allows for the procedure to be done after the end of your menstrual bleeding, but before ovulation occurs. Scheduling the HSG within this timeframe helps to minimize the risk of interfering with a possible pregnancy, as well as ensure that the uterus and fallopian tubes are most receptive to the injection of contrast dye.
Avoid scheduling the exam during your period, as this can interfere with the accuracy of the results.
Inform your doctor if you have a history of pelvic infections. This information is crucial as it may influence the timing and approach to your exam to ensure it is performed safely.
It's recommended that you discuss the timing of the HSG exam with your doctor, as they may have specific recommendations based on your individual situation and medical history.
If you have any questions about the HSG, don't hesitate to call our Manhattan office at (212) 246-2063.
