Foam ultrasound for fertility checks: will women find it comfortable?
NCT ID NCT07736859
First seen Jul 30, 2026 · Last updated Jul 31, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study asks women undergoing a HyFoSy (hysterosalpingo-foam sonography) exam as part of an infertility workup to rate their satisfaction and the procedure's tolerability. Participants fill out a questionnaire right after the exam, scoring their overall experience on a 0–10 scale. The goal is to see how well this foam-based ultrasound test is accepted by patients.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Hysterosalpingo-foam sonography (HyFoSy) — an ultrasound procedure using foam to check the fallopian tubes
- What this could lead to
- If patients find HyFoSy highly tolerable, it could become a preferred first-step test for checking fallopian tube patency in fertility evaluations.
- What could go wrong
- This is a single-center observational study with no comparison group, so results may not apply to all clinics or patients. Satisfaction is subjective and may not reflect the procedure's diagnostic accuracy.
