Still bleeding but HSG and hysteroscopy tomorrow

[MorgenMuffel]

Sporry for the moan....Scheduled to have HSG and hysteroscopy tomorrow but for some reason my body is being an utter bastard and I'm having a longer period than usual Still bleeding and pretty sure they won't do it

I realise its not the end of the world but been waiting ages for these and no guarantee of being able to rebook for next month. Arghh why does my body hate me?!

Any way I can hurry it up and help it stop? Should I take the antibiotics anyway in case of a miracle overnight?

*sorry

I don't think you can have it if you're still bleeding? They will push a saline solution through your uterus and into your tubes - if your still bleeding there is the risk this will be washed into your tube and could cause infection

This happened to me, but I still went to the appointment as was able to have it as I only had a brownish discharge by then (sorry if TMI!).

If you're not bleeding properly by tomorrow I would still take a chance and go!

I was desperate to get it done too, especially as the cycle had been induced.

Good luck!

Thanks itwasalovely that's what I thought 😣 sods law this month's bleed is long

Hi there,

I had a hysteroscopy and cervical dilation and my period had just started. Went along not knowing what to expect and was told not only would they go ahead but that it was the best time to have it done. Best of luck x

windy and chichz thabks so much for your replies, has made me feel so much better. I think I've by some miracle stopped....Not had any blood when I wipe since about 8pm last night and clean pad overnight (sorry for tmi!). Hopefully even if I have a little spotting it'll be ok. Fx. Weirdly nervous about it

@MorgenMuffel that is pretty much what happened with me- it's like your body really wants you to have that scan! I also definitely recommend Ibroprufen and/or Paracetamol first. The HSG can be a bit uncomfortable.

Thanks for the reminder chichz I've just stocked up...hoping it's not too bad!

chichz ouch! Both were pretty unpleasant. No issues found though which is good. Planning to put my feet up this eve and make DH run around after me

@MorgenMuffel so glad you had it done! The nurse told me it's fine as long as it isn't red blood, which is good to know. Glad everything was ok too. X

Thanks chichz
