Visualization of the clinical picture of the uterine cavity without the use of X-rays.
Safe and accurate check of the fallopian tubes using ultrasound.
Other names for the procedure are: sonohysterosalpingoscopy, sonohysterography, sonosalpingography, or salpingosonography.
In the normal state of the female reproductive system, one egg ripens in the ovary every month. After leaving the ovarian follicle, it moves to the uterine cavity through the fallopian tube. After fertilization of the egg by the man's sperm, the formed embryo continues to move towards the uterus until it enters it and is fixed on its wall (implantation of the embryo). If the fallopian tubes are obstructed, the female and male sex cells will not meet, and fertilization will not occur.
20-30% share of tubal factor in the structure of female infertility
*Fallopian tubes or fallopian tubes
A paired organ of the female reproductive system that ensures the movement of the egg and embryo (after fertilization) into the uterine cavity.
Why do fallopian tubes become obstructed?
The procedure is performed in the 1st phase of the menstrual cycle.
If the test results show the presence of pathogenic flora in the genitals, sonohysterosalpingography is not performed.
The procedure is usually performed under general anesthesia.
Compared to other similar tests for fallopian tube patency, the price and safety create a high demand for this procedure.
Sonohysterosalpingography is performed on an outpatient basis.
Duration of the procedure: 5-7 minutes
First, a gynecologist examines the vagina and cervix with a gynecological mirror and performs the necessary preliminary treatment. Then a contrast agent is injected into the uterine cavity through a catheter.
Using an ultrasound machine, a gynecologist examines the movement of contrast medium in the fallopian tubes and its distribution in the abdominal cavity. The specialist also observes changes in the size of the uterus: if it expands or stretches, he concludes that the tubes are obstructed.
Based on the results of the examination, the doctor determines the tactics of further treatment.
The duration of the sonohysterosalpingography procedure is 5-7 minutes
