Trying since long:HSG before IUI??
2007-07-25
Name: PP



I got a pelvic scan done and the results are fine. Should I also get an HSG done in addition? Can I not try the IUI wihtout an HSG test? Is it really that much important?

Can the semen sample be stored/frozen before I get my IUI? What is the max time it can be frozen? My due date for IUI is 5th Aug and my husband is in town on 4th Aug!! Can you please help!!!!

Hi! My doc did not start the treatment until I got an HSG done. Basically it is to ensure that there are no blockage in the tubes. its better u get it done, as it could be really frustrating to know that u went through all the ordeal of medication and realize that u haven' t conceived as u have blockage in the tube
My doc also did not advice medication during the cycle that I got the HSG done, they said that the effect of the dye on a possible fetus is unknown and not recomended

u havent mentioned ur age and also for how long u' ve been TTC and also if u have polycystic ovaries or any other problem........doctors generally do IUI THRICE before they ask u to get ur HSG done IF they dont see any problem with ur scan...........if they see a problem with ur scan then they dont want to waste IUI cycles and ask to get HSG done to eliminate tubal blockage etc.........why do u want to freeze the sample if ur husband is going to be there on 4th?fresh sample is always better on the day of IUI.every hospital/clinic is not equipped with freezing facility.U need to check with ur doctor about it if u want the sprem to be freezed..........hope my answers help.all the best...hope ur IUI is positive.take care.
