Hi,
Thanks for choosing healthcaremagic.
HSG is hysterosalpingography which is done through the transvaginal route for evaluation of your uterine cavity and tube patency. A cannula is inserted from below and liquid contrast is passed to check it.
There is no need for you to stop glucophage for the test as it will not affect your result in any way. You can continue taking glucophage and still go for the test in evening.
Hope it sorts your problem.
Regards,
Dr. Pankaj Nagori
