I had my HSG done last month. I was scared and nervous because everyone told me how much it was going to hurt. I had no pain at all. What I did feel was just uncomfortable and pressure. My RE did mine and she talked me thru the entire process. I got to see the fluid going thru my tubes on a screen next to me. They basically give you a shot of anestaesia in your uterus. Then they clamp your uterus and begin to put the liquid in. As the liquid is making it's way thru the tubes they will be taking xrays. It's over in like 5 min.

I agree with all the ladies, there is not point in going on without knowing if your tubes are open. Also, you are more fertile 3 months after your HSG. So those are two positive reasons to go ahead and have it done. Also, follow your RE's advice and take the antobiotics a few days before the procedure and then a few days after. They are going to put several tools inside of you and an infection will only hold up your IUI. Good luck!
