Infertility is defined as having sex without contraception for more than 12 months without becoming pregnant. The incidence of infertility is high. Once the disease occurs, it will not only affect the physical and mental health of women, but also affect the harmony of their families. Fallopian tube obstruction is the main factor causing infertility. In the past, X-ray hysterosalpingography was used to evaluate the patency of fallopian tube. In recent years, contrast-enhanced ultrasound technology has become more and more mature. It has the advantages of safety, accuracy, non-invasive, and reproducibility in evaluating fallopian tube patency, and is conducive to real-time observation of uterine cavity morphology, which has been widely used in the diagnosis and treatment of infertility. To evaluate the efficacy of Hysterosalpingo contrast sonography (Hysterosalpingo contrast sonography, hysterosalpingo contrast sonography, hysterosalpingo contrast sonography, hysterosalpingo contrast sonography, The improvement of adverse reactions such as pain caused by HyCoSy) in the diagnosis of infertility, and whether there are significant differences in the benefits brought by Hycosy compared with single moxa salt pack hot compress and conventional drugs for pain relief. This article reviews the research progress of Chinese and western medicine related to HyCoSy in the diagnosis of infertility in recent years, so as to provide some reference for clinicians.
