The speculum will be removed and the transvaginal probe will be reinserted into the vagina to capture more detailed images of the uterine cavity as it is filled with sterile saline. Then, a catheter is placed into the uterine cavity to transport sterile saline into the uterine cavity. During this exam, a speculum will be used to dilate the vagina so that the cervix can be seen and cleansed. Once the Transvaginal Ultrasound is complete, you will remain in the same position for the Hysterosonogram. This type of Ultrasound is similar to a gynecologic exam, which involves you lying on your back with your feet in stirrups while a transducer is inserted into the vagina, allowing images of the uterus and ovaries to be taken from different angles. Prior to the Hysterosonogram, a Transvaginal Ultrasound will be performed to establish a baseline for the thickness of the endometrium (lining of the uterus) and determine any abnormalities that may exist. You may have vaginal spotting for a few days after the procedure. Over-the-counter medication should minimize any discomfort associated with the procedure. Some women have cramps for many hours after the surgery. During the sonohysterogram, you may feel occasional cramping because of the introduction of the saline.
