Is输卵管造影 painful?

During a hysterosalpingography, there may be a sensation of mild pain, but generally it is within a tolerable range. The level of discomfort varies among individuals, mainly depending on the person's sensitivity to pain and the specific procedures performed during the imaging process. When the contrast medium is injected into the fallopian tubes and causes distension of the tubal lumen, it may irritate the surrounding tissues, resulting in mild pain or discomfort. Additionally, improper techniques during the procedure, such as injecting the contrast medium too quickly, may also increase the sensation of pain. To reduce discomfort, patients can try to stay relaxed and avoid excessive anxiety before the hysterosalpingography. At the same time, physicians will also take appropriate measures to minimize the patient's discomfort, such as administering local anesthetic agents.
