Patient's question:
I have been trying to conceive for a long time but haven't been able to get pregnant. Recently, I went for a check-up and was told that my fallopian tubes are blocked. Is that serious? Please ask: What is the best way to treat fallopian tube adhesion?Doctor's answer:
Currently, different hospitals employ various methods for treating fallopian tube adhesion, including laparoscopy, manual dilation, physical therapy, enema, and medication. According to our experience, the treatment of fallopian tube adhesion should be based on the location of the adhesion and combined with the anatomical characteristics of each part. If the adhesion is in the fallopian tube lumen, manual dilation can be performed near the proximal end. For adhesion at the distal end of the fallopian tube or surrounding areas, laparoscopy is recommended.For proximal adhesion, the best treatment method currently is hysteroscopic tubal dilation under X-ray guidance. For distal adhesion of the fallopian tube, there are no particularly effective methods. If the adhesion is mild, it is not advisable to treat and pregnancy can be attempted for 2–3 years. If infertility persists, in vitro fertilization (IVF) is recommended. If the adhesion is severe, laparoscopic surgery combined with distal treatment may be performed.
