A hysterosalpingogram (HSG) is an x-ray test where dye is passed through the uterus and out the Fallopian tubes to check that they are patent (open).  It is a standard part of the infertility work up and is covered by provincial healthcare plans.

To get an HSG, you must have a requisition from your doctor. Normally, PCRM doctors will order this test after your consultation (if it is indicated).

To book the test, phone the HSG location on the first day of your menstrual period and the HSG will be scheduled for a week or two later.  Your doctor’s medical office assistant (MOA) will give you a list of locations and an outline of the booking procedures. For reference, here is a list of some of the more common locations around our main facilities:
