Hi, I'm about to undergo HSG tomorrow at St. Luke's QC. My OB is Dra. Concepcion Ilao-Oreta. Her secretary told me to prepare 30K. Actually, the HSG procedure in St. Luke's is around 3K+ but because may kasamang anesthesia naging 30K (inclusive of gamit, PF for anesthesiologist, room, etc).

Ganun ba talaga kasakit that you need an anesthesia?

[chikit]

Sa experience ko sis hindi na kailangan ng anes.  I actually asked my ob about it nung sabihin nya for hystero na ko dahil sa mga nabasa ko na may anes yung iba sabi nya no need na. Pinainom lang ako Dolfenal 500 mg before and after okay naman. Nakapag gala pa ko sa mall after para lang ako may period yung pain, nawala din agad.

[yoyomasterpups]

Thank you, sis.

I'll ask tomorrow kung pwedeng wala na lang anes. Medyo leaning towards having an anes. pa rin ako kasi ayoko talaga masaktan (#hugot talaga). Pero sayang ang pera. Shucks, ang hirap naman.

Gano katagal yung pain?

[damonsgirl]

Sis tolerable yung pain. At ilang segundo lang un kesa sa pain na 30k lols. Mas matagal ako makakapag move on pag 30k nawala sakin hehe.

[wifey]

^^sis ako nasaktan (severe dysmenorrhea-like pain) pero i agree sa mga sisses natin mas masakit sa bulsa ang 30k hehe...
after the procedure in Madocs, nakapaglakad naman ako to PGH area

I just took pain reliever an hour before the procedure

[barbillie]

^Sis, ako din walang anes. Eto yung breakdown ng HSG expenses ko:

OB PF - 7,000 (My OB is Dra. Jing Fernandez)
X-Ray - 3,088.68 (Mine was done in SLMC BGC.)
Radtech PF - 1,200

Ang pain in a scale of 1-10, para sakin eh nasa 8. Parang matinding menstrual cramps lang, at nakaramdam ako ng discomfort ng nilalagay yung clamp. Pero yung actual procedure, masakit lang nun pinapadaloy na yung contrast.

I took Doxycycline, 2 tabs for 7 days. SOP lang ata na mag-antibiotic para sure na walang bacterial infection.

[yoyomasterpups]

Tapos na guys. I'm glad I had anesthesia kase 1) sinagot ng philhealth at 3K PF lang ng anesthesiologist yung binayad ko. 2) They really insist on anes kasi raw pag napa-aray ako at nag spasm pwede raw mag false positive.

Actually ang mahal eh yung PF ng gumawa ng HSG - 13K and yun ay hindi covered ng card or philhealth.

My results are not that good. nag go through yung dye pero medyo kalat so parang may fluid, which could be Hydrosalpinx. I will undergo laparoscopy for my endometriosis and isasabay na yung hysteroscopy and my OB will try to fix it. pag ok, we will TTC within the next 6 months pag hinde, IVF na. BUT if it's hydrosalpinx, my OB said ila-ligate nya ko (with consent) and then IVF. Medyo natakot ako kasi LIGATE diba? but the more I read about it the more I am convinced na dapat ma-ligate before IVF. Kasi the fluid from the hydrosalpinx is not good for the embryo. posibleng mag fail lang yung IVF. Eh in the first place hindi pa namin kaya mag IVF let alone mag 2nd attempt.

Wish me luck sisses. Sana hindi kami humantong sa IVF.

PS. My OB (Dra. Concepcion Ilao-Oreta) is good. head kasi sya ng Advanced Reproductive Medicine tsenes. Pero mahal sya, pang yamanin talaga.

[rogue0214]

sis yoyomasterpups if that is hydrosalpinx I suggest have it removed. The fluid is toxic to the embryo. I had hydrosalpinx in my right tube. Magpapa IVF na sana kami nun buti nakita sa ultrasound. Kaya nagpalaparoscopy muna ako. Luckily yung left tube ko open. 3 months after laparoscopy I got pregnant thru IUI. 

[damonsgirl]

sis rogue, napreggy ka na pala thru IUI. second baby na ba yung ttc mo?

[rogue0214]

sis damonsgirl, yes TTC # 2 na kami. 3 years old na daughter ko.

[damonsgirl]

hi sis yoyomasterpups. i watched your ob sa youtube. she seems very nice tapos wala pala syang baby after trying everything. she married late daw and passion lang nya makatulong sa couples na mag conceive

pero in fairness, ang mahal ng PF nya sa hsg hehe. si Dr. Eileen Manalo kasi ob ko tapos pareho naman sila ni Dr. Ilao-Oreta na nasa CARMI din pero 8k lang daw charge ni Dr. Manalo all in na. 3 yrs lang lamang ni ob mo sa ob ko based sa years of experience sa thefilipinodoctor website.

[yoyomasterpups]

Sis rogue0214, that's inspiring. I actually don't know how my right ovary is doing. Pero sa results, bilaterally patent. Tapos ang alam ko yung left lang ang may possible hydrosalpinx. I'll have to clarify that with my OB. Sana ok yung isa.

Sis Damonsgirl, I know Dr. Eileen Manalo from the CARMI website. I might ask for a 2nd opinion from her just to ease my mind.

[damonsgirl]

^Yes sis. I highly recommend her kasi she got me pregnant with just one IUI Super love ko sya

[akesanchez]

Kakatapos lang hysterogram ko today, nag-expect ako ng matinding pain lalo na nung iinject na yung dye.  I rarely experience dysmenorrhea kasi so I have no idea kung gano kasakit. Pero uncomfortable lang yung feeling but no pain at all. Sabi ng OB ko hindi niya nagamit lahat ng dye, konti lang kasi nakita na niya agad yung flow, which is a very good thing dahil it means patent both tubes ko. Though anteverted uterus pero sabi ni OB ok lang daw yun hindi naman makaka-affect sa TTC journey. Nagulat lang ako sa PF ng OB ko, sakit sa bulsa. Hahahaha.. Pero feeling ko naman mas mahal pa sa iba. Our OB suggested AI na pero hesitant pa kami ni hubby gusto pa namin try natural method with meds muna.

[penrb]

Hi sis how much nagastos mo at sino OB mo? Ang masakit for me is yung bombahan ka ng hangin. AI? [textspeak!] pinagkaiba nun sa IUI?

[akesanchez]

Sis penrb, my OB is Dr. Mae Syki-Young sa MMC. I paid 10k para sa PF aside pa sa fees ng procedure and gamit. Im not sure lang kung anong difference ng AI and IUI e. Hindi pa kami masyadong nagtanong, after FM nalang on monday. Halos parehas lang ata ng idea.

[damonsgirl]

Mga sis same lang ang IUI sa AI, napanood ko lang sa youtube na they use these terms interchangeably.

[bettebette]

13k saken. Inmy case sobrang saket.. as in... Humiga lang ako for two days kase di ko tlaga kinaya. Uminom pa ko ng buscopan nun.. pero tlagang ang hirap.. severe dysmenorhea sya.. and parang na low blood ako sa procedure.

[rhenjho01]

hi ladies... anyone here who undergo HSG with Dr. Julio, any feedback po... were planning to have HSG by February if di magworkup yung timing method this January... thanks
