What tests need to be done to confirm fallopian tube blockage

Patient's question:

Tubal blockage has been going on for many years, and treatment has been ongoing throughout this period. Now that I'm getting older, I really hope to have my own child as soon as possible, so I'm quite anxious. Could you please tell me what tests are needed to confirm tubal blockage?

Doctor's answer:

1. Hysteroscopy and Laparoscopy Examination: Hysteroscopy and laparoscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that combines hysteroscopy with laparoscopy, using a fiberoptic endoscope for examination and treatment within the uterine cavity. This is currently the world's leading examination and treatment technology, with high accuracy and safety. It is mostly used for the examination of difficult tubal conditions or other methods that cannot diagnose.
2. Tubal Contrast Examination: Tubal contrast examination is an X-ray-based hysterosalpingography that involves injecting contrast medium into the uterine cavity and fallopian tubes through a catheter, followed by X-ray scanning and imaging using an X-ray diagnostic device. Based on the imaging of the contrast medium in the fallopian tubes and pelvic cavity, this examination method helps understand whether the fallopian tubes are unobstructed, the location of blockages, and the specific morphology of the uterine cavity.
