went to my HSG test today and they told me my tubes were clear but i just got a e mail from doctor ...

Hello Laetitia,

We normally schedule your HSG so that it's BEFORE ovulation, that's why they have you call on the 1st day of your period. At your last visit, your menses was on 10/27 so I am assuming that your period was also late November? We try to do it before ovulation, before possible conception. A positive OPK test means you may ovulate in the next 24-48 hours so you should be fine. Your test shows that the dye traveled through both fallopian tubes which mean both tubes are normal. They think there was a small air bubble in your intrauterine cavity, but to be be sure it's not anything else, please make sure to have your ultrasound done as scheduled 12/16.


what you think about the air bubble comments girls ?

 

[JASMAK]

I've never heard of an "air bubble" in the uterus except when it is related to post IVF procedures. Honestly, it would seem strange to me that air could get in there all that easily. I am guessing there was an area where the die did not travel into, looking like an air bubble. Maybe she thinks this might be related to actualy air being introduced during the procedure. Something that I would think is possible. If it is just that, maybe it is not a big deal. Or maybe she suspects it could be something else, like a cyst or something?? And the u/s could confirm that it is either still there or not?

I don't know.. I am just guessing. I hope she emails her response to you soon!

I have no clue hun... I will go thru some of my medical books and search for air bubble in the uteris....
well she didn't in her message seem to worried or even bothered about it, so i suppose just wait and see what happens at the next scan.... I know not news you wanted to hear but might have been your eggie moving towards your tubes... wich would mean we will be naming your JB airhead.....

This is all i could find for now... some of the DYE procedures could form little air bubbles and as far as i read it seems very normal...

[chefamy1122]

my doctor hasn't email back but this what i found so far....

Air bubbles
Air bubbles are often inadvertently introduced into
the uterine cavity during hysterosalpingography.
When multiple air bubbles are present, they can be
easily recognised. However, a single air bubble can be
mistaken for other uterine pathologies, such as a polyp
or a submucosal fibroid. An air bubble is seen as a
mobile, spherical and well-defined filling defect.
Its mobility and lack of persistence indicates its nature
(Fig. 2). It is possible to aspirate the air bubble and
re-inject the contrast agent to show a normal uterine
cavity. Alternatively, the air bubble can be expelled
into the peritoneal cavity. Another indication of its true
nature is that air bubbles move to the non-dependant part
of the uterus when the patient turns


and it looks like i have one single bubble from her email...
