HSG are kinda scary. I had one done last summer and was terrified at first. I'll tell you a little about mine. First, DH was allowed to come in the room with me but had to stand behind a glass wall during the procedure, so it helped to be able to look at him the whole time rather then the doctors faces. Anyways, They had me put on a hospital type gown. I laid on a table under some big x-rays machines. They inserted a cath and told me that it would be a little painful. They then shot some dye through my tubes, one at a time, and at some point during the dye process, they had me turn on my sides. They took x-rays while all this was going on. I do have to admit that it was pretty painful but I've heard many other people say they had no pain with it. I was in and out of there in about 10-15 mins. So if it is scary for you, just know that It is a really quick procedure. I had some spotting after wards but it lasted about an hour. I had some mild cramping too but some Tylenol and resting on the couch helped.
I hope this is a good experience for you. Don't forget to let us know how it went!
