HSG

View Full Post

So I had my private HSG test today. I had one performed about 3 1/2 years ago and I remember it just feeling uncomfortable. Well it was the same today. The first part of the test is like a cervical smear and I did squirm quite a bit as she moved the speculum and the internal vaginal rod but then I eased into it. It was like a dull ache as the dye was injected through and then nothing.

The gynae doc said the dye went in and flowed out so that is a good sign. I have a lot of bloody ewcm and expect that for a few days. I have a prescription for some antibiotics to take today too.

What I didn't know was she was going to prescribe me an injection of (Gonasi) to do on the day of my surge or on day 15 if it doesn't come by then, plus Progesterone gel. She said I had a good follicle and this was an excellent chance this month! She said to have sex from tomorrow and 3 days in a row when I get my surge plus lots more sex on our holiday which we go on day 15.

I think I'll probably get a peak tomorrow or Thursday.

Eeek! Let's see what happens next! 12DPO will be a few days before we get back so I'll pack some tests. She said if it's negative I have to stop the gel otherwise my period won't start. And if it it's positive to come back and get a blood test from her. What I'm confused about is my cycle is usually a few days longer than 12 so should I still stop the gel if it's negative? Surely I shouldn't test until 14DPO to make sure???

I've never done any of this before so nervous and excited!

@millbarnet doc emailed me and told me to stop all Progesterone I think I will. If I'm truly pregnant my period won't start xx

I think I'd give it till another beta? They at least need to test again to see if that 6 doubled?

Well the doc obviously thinks there is no chance of it increasing and another test today after a 4 hour hold I think I agree. I read that if I stopping the Progesterone and I'm pregnant my period just won't start. If I'm not pregnant and it's the trigger then I'll just be able to move onto my next cycle. Pic from this afternoon attached. Maybe for some reason all these tests have just picked up the trigger. I've read it can hang around for a few days after your period starts. Just so disheartening xx
