Tried and trusted:
Over 1 million fallopian tubes assessed worldwide.
Step 1:
You will be asked to lie on your back on the examination table with your feet in stirrups. A routine transvaginal (internal) scan is carried out first.
Step 2:
A speculum (instrument) is then placed in the vagina (like having a smear). A catheter (tube) is then gently introduced into the cervix. The speculum is removed, and the ultrasound probe is inserted into the vagina.
Step 3:
ExEm® Foam is gently infused through the catheter into the uterus and the fallopian tubes. The flow of the foam can be seen on the ultrasound.
Step 4:
Patency of the fallopian tubes will be assessed and determined using small movements of the ultrasound probe. When completed, the ultrasound probe and catheter are removed.
Step 5:
Afterwards, you and your gynecologist will discuss together the next steps in your fertility journey.
