Patient's question:
Recently, I've been feeling lower back pain and a heavy sensation in my lower abdomen. I'm not sure about going to the hospital for a check-up, but they said I have hydrosalpinx. Could you please tell me how to treat hydrosalpinx?Doctor's answer:
How to carefully check for tubal hydrops? Hello, tubal hydrops is caused by tubal endometritis, leading to adhesion and self-locking of the fimbriae and isthmus, with exudate accumulating in the fallopian tubes, forming tubal hydrops. Sometimes it may develop into tubal abscess, which gradually transforms into serous fluid and further into tubal hydrops. This is a major cause of infertility. First, it is necessary to identify the location and severity of tubal hydrops to select an appropriate treatment method. It is recommended to visit a hospital for imaging tests to carefully examine the condition before proceeding with treatment. Tubal hydrops is caused by intestinal obstruction at the fimbriae, resulting from pathogenic infections that lead to tubal inflammation. Due to bacterial infections and leukocyte infiltration, the endometrium becomes swollen, the stroma swells, and exudate accumulates.
