Is painless tubal imaging general anesthesia or local anesthesia?

Tubalography is usually performed without anesthesia. Tubalography is a common clinical test, which is a gynecological operation to detect whether the fallopian tubes are open or not through imaging methods. After the doctor injects the contrast medium into the uterine cavity, X-rays are taken to observe the flow of the contrast medium into the pelvis to determine whether the fallopian tubes are open. This procedure is usually performed without anesthesia, which can interfere with transfer and other aspects of the procedure. The contrast agent should not be injected with too much force or pushed too quickly to prevent damage to the fallopian tubes. If the contrast medium is found to enter the abnormal channel under fluoroscopy and the patient coughs at the same time, the patient should be alerted to the occurrence of oil embolism, stop the operation immediately, take the head down and feet up position, and observe closely. 2 weeks after the contrast, prohibit pelvic bathing and sexual life. Sometimes the tubal spasm causes the false impression of tubal impassability, and the contrast examination is performed again if necessary. It is recommended that women communicate with their doctors in detail before the operation, make judgment according to their actual situation, and choose the appropriate way for treatment.
