Hysterosalpingogram

I've fixed a date with a private hospital to do this test. I went to Ampang Putri. Before that I have to do some other hormone test - FSH & LH test at LPPKN. With the results, baru I can proceed to the HSG test.

What is a Hysterosalpingogram?

A hysterosalpingogram is a fertility test used to detect uterine and fallopain health. The HSG test uses x-ray technology to create a picture of the uterus and fallopian tubes. When you undergo an HSG test, colored dye is injected into you uterus. This dye then travels up through the fallopian tubes and out into the abdominal cavity. The HSG allows your health care provider to determine if there is any damage to your reproductive system.

Follicle Stimulating Hormone

What is FSH?FSH is just one of a number of hormones that is secreted by your brain. Inside your brain, located just at the base of your neck, there is a tiny region called the pituitary gland. This gland is responsible for releasing a variety of different hormones, including FSH. FSH hormone is used to help encourage the growth of eggs in women and sperm in men. Without FSH, neither males nor females would be able to procreate.

Luteinizing Hormone

What is Luteinizing Hormone(LH)?Luteneizing hormone is a hormone produced in both men and women. It is secreted from a small gland, callled the pituitary gland, which is located in the brain. A type of gonadatropin (because it stimulates the gonads), LH is necessary for fertility. In women, LH helps regulate ovulation and turn empty follicles into corpus luteum. In men, LH helps the testes to make and secrete testosterone.
