Had my HSG today
I had posted last week that I was nervous about my upcoming HSG so I thought I'd update. It was totally clear! Everything looks fine. The test was unpleasant, especially because the radiologist couldn't get the catheter in right even after a few tries. It took about 10 minutes all told. Really intense period-type cramps for a minute or two, but mentally it wasn't so bad because I knew it would be over so soon. Plus, I kept telling myself that I was doing this so that hopefully I'd be in labor one day and that that would be much worse. 
So now, after 8 MONTHS of not ovulating, of growing giant cysts and being put on BC pills, of worrying and wondering and waiting... it's just another 2 weeks until my next appointment with the RE to start me on Clomid and talk about actually having a baby. 8 months so that I can finally TRY for the first time. I'm super excited.

I'm glad to hear it went well and everything is clear. That's great news! The Dr that did mine had the same problem with the catheter- not fun!

Where were you this morning with this advice? Seriously, though, I can't imagine that there are 2 ways to equally give an effective HSG - one that causes pain and one that is pain-free, and that doctors all choose the "pain" one for no reason at all.
I've heard that you're more fertile after an HSG too, but my problem is that I don't ovulate. My tubes being super-open won't help my hormones push those eggies out of my ovary this month.

Re: Had my HSG today
I am glad everything went well. I have the same issue, no ovulating on my own. Hopefully the clomid will work for you and you will be pregnant soon.

Thank you!
My RE sent me to NRAD (Nassau Radiology... something!) - they have 10 offices all over Nassau. I went to the one on Lakeville Rd. right off the Northern State. The people at the office were nice and it was really quick on and off the highway.

Re: Had my HSG today
I know is a bit late, but I just joined LIFamilies this week. I wish you a lot of luck and baby dust to you I just had my HSG last Tuesday and everything was clear.  I had mine done at North Shore University Hospital by Dr. Rosenfeld my RE doctor. I have my second consult with him Wednesday of this week coming.
The HSG itself was a bit painful but quick. I hope is true and we become pregnant right after. Good luck to you
