Tubal patency tests are performed to assess the condition and openness of the fallopian tubes in women. The fallopian tubes play a crucial role in fertility as they are responsible for transporting the egg from the ovary to the uterus, and they are also the site of fertilization. There are a few different methods used to assess tubal patency, and the choice of test may depend on various factors, including your specific situation and the recommendations of your healthcare provider. Here are a few common methods: Hysterosalpingogram (HSG): This is one of the most common tests used to evaluate tubal patency. It involves injecting a contrast dye into the uterus through the cervix. X-rays or fluoroscopy are then used to visualize the dye as it flows through the uterus and fallopian tubes. This procedure helps identify any blockages or abnormalities. Sonohysterography: Also known as saline infusion sonography, this procedure involves the injection of sterile saline into the uterus, followed by an ultrasound examination. The saline helps provide a clearer image of the uterus and fallopian tubes, allowing the doctor to assess tubal patency. Laparoscopy: This is a surgical procedure that allows for direct visualization of the fallopian tubes and other reproductive organs. It involves making small incisions in the abdomen and inserting a tiny camera (laparoscope) to examine the pelvic region. If any blockages or abnormalities are found, they can sometimes be addressed during the same procedure. |
