Question : Had HSG, show left follopian tube is visualised but no contrast spilliage is seen. What does it means?

Answered by Dr. Shinas Hussain (46 minutes later)

Brief Answer:
No contrast spillage indicates tubal block.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for the query.
No contrasts spillage in HSG means the Fallopian tubes are blocked.
It may be due to obliteration of fallopian tubes, this is usually secondary to previous inflammation or polyps. It can cause infertility.
If you fail to conceive, you can consult an infertility specialist and get evaluated. Additional investigations like laparoscopy may be required to make a diagnosis.
Hope I have answered your query.
Thanks
