Just before HSG you can take Hyoscine bromide (buscopan ) Injection and this reduces the pain as well as false results of blocked tubes due to spasm
Next Steps
Done on day 6-9 of periods under iv sedation under sterile aseptic precautions
Health Tips
Take a course of antibiotics and painkillers for 5 days after HSG to prevent infection
