Lynn,
Sometimes I think it is the doctor performing the test. I have went for
a Hysterosonography test and endometrial biopsy and one doctor couldn't
finish the test (problem is inability to pass the catheter/instruments
through the cervix) while I went to another gyn and he/she was able to
do it with no problem.
