Can I get a hysterosalpingogram if I have hyperthyroidism?

By Gustavo Daniel Carti M.D. (gynecologist on Juaneda Fertility Center).
Last Update: 02/15/2021

Hysterosalpingography is a gynecological imaging study that is performed with an iodinated contrast substance, so the administration of the same in patients with hyperthyroidism could complicate and aggravate this condition.

In these situations, a thorough study of thyroid function and a timely endocrinological consultation is recommended.
