The fertility clinic has referred me for an HSG, which I'm having tomorrow.
When she was referring me, the consultant also wrote me a prescription for 3 different antibiotics (2 oral, 1 supository) which she said I needed to take 5 days as there is 'a very small risk of infection' from the procedure.
For one reason or another (mainly forgetfulness, partly I really don't like taking unnessesary antibiotics) I haven't collected the prescription or started the course.
The doctor herself said the risk of infection is very small, but I am slightly worried about it now!
Has anyone had an HSG without antibiotics, or can anyone quantify the risk?
Many thanks
