Advance spillage in hsg test

Advance spillage during a hysterosalpingography (HSG) test refers to the premature release of the contrast agent used in the procedure, which is intended to visualize the uterine cavity and fallopian tubes. This can occur if there is a blockage or abnormality in the reproductive tract, potentially indicating issues such as uterine fibroids or pelvic inflammatory disease. Proper technique and patient positioning are crucial to minimize the risk of advance spillage and ensure accurate results. If spillage occurs, further evaluation may be necessary to determine the underlying cause.
