Hey!! I had my HSG test done about a year ago....It wasn't too bad. I felt some cramping when the dye was inserted, but it was really quick and after my RE was finished she let me lay there for about 10 minutes. When I got up I was ok. =) Good luck! I'm sure everything will go great-- update us w/ the results! Oh- you may want to take 2-4 Motrin 1 hour prior to your test-- I did that, I think it helped.

Lauren5290-- when are you starting BCP's...? I'm already screwed up from the calendar they had set for me when I had my IVF consult...It may be later April before I start BCP's when I thought we would already be on stims by later April... showed her face later...go figure!...

Hi everyone! Welcome to all the newbies!!! I've been MIA- on vactaion - but glad to be back. I'm down to my last 2 BCP- yeah- and then call RE with next AF- hoping she shows maybe Thursday or Friday. Not sure exactly what is next. I know my RE mentioned a mock transfer, and Lupron, and I know we'll be stimmming with follistim- can't wait to start all this and get this rolling! Sad to say- can't wait for AF to start!
Jessicap- my HSg was aok also- no problems, no pain- similar to a pap- but motrin is never a bad idea! Hang in there! Good luck!

I have had 3, first one done by OB-sucked big time. 2nd one done by RE, did not even know he started, yet alone finished. 3rd, done by new OB but done while I had laproscopy so I did not feel it.
Prepare for the worst but hope for the best. It could go either way, I hope yours is painfree
