When it comes to female fertility, the health and functionality of the fallopian tubes play a crucial role in natural conception. Tubal testing is a key diagnostic step in identifying any blockages, damage, or abnormalities that might be affecting a woman’s ability to conceive.

Tubal testing is a diagnostic procedure used to examine the patency (openness) and condition of the fallopian tubes. Common methods include:

• Hysterosalpingography (HSG): An X-ray procedure where contrast dye is used to check if the fallopian tubes are open.

• Sonohysterography (Saline Infusion Sonography): A less invasive ultrasound-based test to evaluate the uterus and fallopian tubes.

• Laparoscopy with Chromopertubation: A minimally invasive surgery where dye is passed through the tubes while being observed via a laparoscope.
