The data collection method consists of literature study, observation, interviews and documentation then the data is processed using comparative, namely comparing the results of observations with the existing theory in the reference book through data reduction, data presentation and conclusions. The use of contrast media as much as 7 cc with a ratio of 5 cc contrast media and 2 cc aqua des, the first stage was injected as much as 3.5 cc then exposed and the next 3.5 cc for the second exposure. AP post contrast projection has been able to fill in all parts of the uterus and both tubes, so there is no need to add oblique projections because it can establish a diagnosis. Oblique projection should be added if the contrast medium spills over or does not reach the patient's tubes.
