Patient's question:
Recently, I've been feeling constant pain in my lower abdomen and soreness in my waist. Additionally, I've been experiencing discomfort in my private area, with itching and burning, especially in the afternoon, which is really unbearable. Could you please tell me: What are the symptoms of advanced hydrosalpinx of the fallopian tubes?Doctor's answer:
Hydrosalpinx is relatively common in patients with chronic salpingitis. Once the fallopian tube experiences inflammation again, or due to recurrent adhesions and self-locking within the lumen, the secretion of mucosal cells gradually accumulates within the lumen. Alternatively, when fallopian tube inflammation leads to adhesions or blockages at the isthmus or fimbriae, it gradually forms fallopian tube pus. After the pus cells are digested, they eventually transform into clear, watery fluid, resulting in infertility. Hydrosalpinx obstructs the fusion of sperm and eggs, thereby causing infertility. Increased vaginal discharge: After the fallopian tube forms hydrosalpinx, the lumen of the dilated and undilated parts of the fallopian tube remains connected, leading to increased vaginal discharge.
