Patient's question:
Recently, I've been feeling lower back pain and a heavy sensation in my lower abdomen. I'm not at ease about going to the hospital for a check-up, and they said I have hydrosalpinx. Could you please tell me how to prevent hydrosalpinx in daily life?Doctor's answer:
Generally, it occurs after tubal inflammation or due to adhesions causing self-locking, where the secretion of mucosal cells accumulates within the lumen, or due to recurrent tubal inflammation leading to adhesions at the isthmus and fimbriae, resulting in blocked tubal pyosalpinx. When the pus cells in the lumen are resolved, a watery liquid is ultimately obtained.Prevention of tubal hydrops: First, women need to pay attention to personal hygiene for themselves and their sexual partners during sexual activity. Before engaging in sexual activity, both parties should clean their external genitalia to prevent the smooth invasion of pathogens. Second, if a woman experiences symptoms of vaginal peeling, sexual activity should be strictly prohibited. Women should also pay attention to hygiene of their external genitalia and menstrual hygiene.
