I did. I fought infertility for 18 months when I finally had an HSG to check for blocked tubes. My tubes were clear, but I have to warn you - the HSG was terribly painful! More so than natural childbirth was!
I got pregnant the very next month and had a healthy baby boy.

It is possible. The procedure involves having dye injected into your uterine cavity. The test can determine, among other things, if there is a blockage of the fallopian tubes. The dye can dislodge a possible blockage- thus allowing the egg to travel down the tube like it was meant to. A hsg is diagnostic and can tell other if you have fibroids, etc but it also "knocks out the cobwebs"
I know a few women that have gotten pg after having one done. I was not a lucky one unfortunately.
Although the purpose of the hysterosalpingogram is not therapeutic, sometimes forcing dye through the tube will dislodge any material which blocks it. A number of women have become pregnant following a hysterosalpingogram without further treatment.

I'm sorry I don't have details but YES I have heard of many women becoming pregnant after HSG.
"Interestingly, studies have shown that women have a higher rate of a natural pregnancy occurring after having a hysterosalpingogram. It is thought that the dye may help to resolve a partial blockage or to flush out some debris in the fallopian tubes that had been hindering conception. Although an HSG may be helpful for those people trying to conceive, it is important to remember that it is first and foremost a diagnostic test, not an infertility treatment. "

My OB did one on me after ttc for 8 months. He also did a biopsy of my uterus and a laparoscopy all at the same time, so I was put out for the procedures. I have heard that an hsg is painful. I can say that the recovery was much worse than my D&C after my miscarriage. Anyway, my OB discovered I had a mild case of endometriosis, which he removed during the procedure. He also found that my uterus lining doesn't get thick enough to sustain a pregnancy, which is most likely what caused my prior miscarriage. He gave me progesterone to take from day 16 of my cycle until the end, or until the end of my first trimester if I got pregnant. Well, I conceived the very next month and had a full term healthy baby girl. I had always thought that it was the endometriosis that interferred with my conception. However, while ttc again my OB had referred me to a fertility specialist because I had ovulated 5 months without conceiving. The fertility specialist told me that many women conceive with endometriosis, so that might not have been the cause before. He also told me that an hsg can be very theraputic - even if there is no blockage in your tubes. We were going to schedule another one, but fortunately for me I conceived that month. Best of luck to you.

Definition for folks who don't know what the proceedure is.
A hysterosalpingogram is an important test that is part of the basic infertility evaluation.
The test is usually done in the radiology department of a hospital in which radiographic contrast (dye) is injected into the uterine cavity through the vagina and cervix. The uterine cavity fills with dye and if the fallopian tubes are open the dye will then fill the tubes and spill out into the abdominal cavity. In this way it can be determined whether the fallopian tubes are open or blocked and whether the blockage is located at the junction of the tube and the uterus (proximal) or whether it is at the end of the fallopian tube (distal). These two areas where the tube is most commonly blocked have different causes. Effective treatment for tubal factor infertility is available.
But to answer your question....yes. My tubes were clogged, during the proceedure they pumped lbs of air in a few times to try to open them and succeeded (very painful). Tried for two years with drugs, oral & shot, to get PG. Didn't succeed. A few years later 2 other doctors told me that I had gone into menopause @ 34!
Me and my husband at the time separated because of the fact he wanted children of his own and didn't want to adopt. Then one month after my divorce was finalized the man I was seeing knocked me up! Proud parent of a 11 week old baby girl.
Never give up hope.

HSG is performed when it is doubted that a female's fallopian tubes are blocked. liquid used during the HSG opens any blockage in them and so eases the sperm to travel and fertilize the egg. We have got it done almost an year ago and since then trying to conceive and this month my wife is not having her periods (4 days delay now). We are assuming its pregnancy but not yet sure. Will let you know if it happened. but yes HSG is a very useful thing regarding chances of pregnancy.

any lady that still has her uterus and hasnt lengthy gone by menopause yet can get pregnant. as long as she nevertheless receives her era this is conceivable. so i'd say the possibilities are intense very sturdy.
