I'm Going for an HSG Test Monday, and I researched it with Google, but It's Medical people. Lol. Anyone have any experience with it? How it goes? How intense and how long the cramping lasts... How long it takes. any details would be nice. I'm kind of nervous about it. Thanks.

Wasn't too bad actually. I forgot to take my ,Motrin in all the excitment, the cramps almost made me double over myself for a minute, but it took no time at all and everything looked pretty good! =) Thanks for asking.

Yes take to Motrin like they tell ya to. It helped me. I had mine in Jan and it was a very simple procedure. I did have some weird brown spotting and slight bleeding 2 weeks after...and then got my period about a week after that. I was on a 32 day cycle and the past 2 months I am on a 28 day cycle. So I am praying this will help me get pregnant! So far no luck! GOOD LUCK TO YOU!

its quick.  take a motrin before you go.  i did not have any cramping, just a little bit of light bleeding.  it was kind of cool being able to look at my tubes and stuff on the tv as the camera goes through.  i did not think it was bad at all.

It wasn't too bad....but I did have a lot of cramping and was pretty uncomfortable....but luckily that part was very quick just when she inserted the dye.  So I was uncomfortable for about 1 - 2 minutes then no pain or cramping after....my RE office had me take a good sized dose of Ibuprofen before the procedure....not sure if it helped.

I did not experience any cramping or discomfort during or after the procedure. As Kricket said, it is pretty quick, I think in total I was there for 20-30 minutes.

I had it done 2x's.  THe 2nd time was great. No side effects/ no cramps...easy as pie.  Once you are on the table & all set up it's no longer then 10 min. it goes quickly.
The first time was not the best & not even worth talking about.  Everyone responds differently but wish you lots of luck.
