It is a test that helps visualize the uterus and the fallopian tubes. Thus, your doctor can identify any obstructions or inherent problems in these areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Salpingography, or hysterosalpingography, is performed via an X-ray machine. Your doctor will advance a special catheter to your cervix to&nbsp;<strong>infuse a contrast agent<\/strong>. In this way, your doctor will be able to track and trace the course of the contrast agent on a radiology monitor. The test takes about 30 minutes. The contrast agent moves from the uterus towards the fallopian tubes and its course is projected on a radiology monitor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Salpingography can detect the&nbsp;<strong>obstruction&nbsp;<\/strong>of the&nbsp;<strong>fallopian tubes&nbsp;<\/strong>&nbsp;that is caused by adhesions, inflammations, and tumors and prevents fertilization. Also, it can identify any&nbsp;<strong>anatomical defect&nbsp;<\/strong>of the uterus that may be responsible for miscarriages or implant failures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Ultrasound salpingography<\/strong><strong><\/strong><strong>Ultrasound salpingography&nbsp;<\/strong>is based on the principles of classic salpingography but, instead of a contrast agent being injected to your vein, doctors use a&nbsp;<strong>special gel<\/strong>, which is hypoallergenic. In addition to its diagnostic role, it can also have a&nbsp;<strong>therapeutic character<\/strong>, as it has a mild obstructive action. The test does not require any special preparation or taking antibiotics or pain killers. Unlike classic salpingography, it does not need to be performed on a specific day of your menstruation cycle, although it is advisable to have it before ovulation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":4199,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_uag_custom_page_level_css":"","_coblocks_attr":"","_coblocks_dimensions":"","_coblocks_responsive_height":"","_coblocks_accordion_ie_support":"","site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center
