Patient's question:
I'm only in my early twenties this year, and I just got married not long ago. I'm trying to conceive, but during the check-up, I found out I have hydrosalpinx. The doctor said the chances of getting pregnant like this are very low. What should I do? Please ask: Is it treatable to have hydrosalpinx?Doctor's answer:
Hydrosalpinx refers to one of the more common types of chronic tubal inflammation. After tubal inflammation, or due to adhesions causing self-locking, the secretion of mucosal cells accumulates within the lumen. Alternatively, if tubal inflammation recurs, leading to adhesions at the isthmus and fimbriae, and subsequent blockage, it can result in tubal abscess formation. When the pus cells within the lumen are liquefied, a watery liquid is ultimately obtained. In most cases, hydrosalpinx is caused by gynecological inflammation. Simple drug treatment is often ineffective, and early surgery is necessary to avoid delaying the condition. Surgical treatment includes open surgery and minimally invasive surgery. Hydrosalpinx is a gynecological disease that is prone to occur. During medication, women need to pay attention to their own care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is recommended that patients avoid sexual activity during treatment and maintain good hygiene. We wish female patients a speedy recovery.
