What factors cause fallopian tube blockage?

Patient's question:

Over the years, my husband and I have been trying to conceive, but haven't been successful. Recently, I took the time to visit the hospital for a check-up. My husband had no issues, but they said my fallopian tubes are blocked. I'm asking: What factors can cause blocked fallopian tubes?

Doctor's answer:

The main reasons leading to the blockage of the left fallopian tube are as follows:
1. Various types of inflammation can cause the left fallopian tube to become blocked, often due to imbalances in qi and blood. For instance, patients with uterine swelling or adnexitis may also experience fallopian tube blockage. Due to individual differences, those with weaker constitutions, blood deficiency, or kidney deficiency may also develop fallopian tube pain and blockage.
In rare cases, the uterus may be displaced, leading to such symptoms. The fallopian tube may also be squeezed by fat, resulting in obstruction. Most patients with this condition suffer from excessive obesity, which can also cause issues like excessive fat and endocrine disorders.
Whether it is the left fallopian tube or the right fallopian tube that is blocked, it will affect a woman's ability to conceive.
