Patient's question:
I'm only in my early twenties this year, and I just got married. I'm trying to conceive, but during the check-up, I was found to have hydrosalpinx in the fallopian tubes. The doctor said the chances of getting pregnant like this are very low. What should I do? Please ask: How is early tubal hydrops diagnosed?Doctor's answer:
Since the dilated and undilated parts of the fallopian tube can still be connected when there is hydrosalpinx, patients often experience intermittent vaginal discharge. Infertility is often the only manifestation of fallopian tube hydrosalpinx. Fallopian tube obstruction is a major cause of female infertility, and its inflammatory causes are based on inflammation. It can be caused by incomplete treatment or delayed treatment of acute salpingitis, leading to adhesion of the fallopian tube mucosa. Causes include incomplete miscarriage, retained placenta, and inflammation in individuals with intrauterine devices, which can lead to chronic salpingitis. Long-term inflammatory stimulation can cause the fallopian tube to become thickened, hardened, and adhesed, narrowing the lumen, and even adhering to surrounding tissues, thereby interfering with the fallopian tube's function of picking up eggs and injecting sperm and eggs. Most patients with fallopian tube obstruction exhibit symptoms of chronic pelvic inflammation, such as pain on one or both sides of the lower abdomen, a heavy sensation, excessive discharge, and lower back pain.
