  • HSG can identify conditions such as peritubal adhesions, leiomyomas, and congenital anomalies.
  • HSG can potentially minimize the need for more invasive diagnostic procedures.

    • Conclusions:

    • Hysterosalpingography is an invaluable diagnostic procedure for infertile women.
    • HSG aids significantly in the diagnosis and management of female infertility.
    • The information obtained from HSG supports informed clinical decision-making.
