Just finished the hydrotubation procedure.

Patient's question:

What is the reason for blocked fallopian tubes? I have been trying to conceive for a long time but have not been able to get pregnant. Recently, I went for a checkup and was told that my fallopian tubes are blocked. Is it serious? Please ask: Just had a hydrosalpinx operation

Doctor's answer:

Hello: Hydrotubation has long been banned by the World Health Organization due to its high rate of false negatives and inability to accurately pinpoint the specific site of inflammation. The reason it is still being used is due to traditional beliefs, and it may also be because hospitals do not have contrast imaging equipment. Frequent hydrotubation may potentially lead to infections and tubal. Simple hydrotubation cannot accurately assess the condition of the fallopian tubes and may result in false positives, such as tubal or tubal leakage, which cannot be diagnosed. Therefore, simple hydrotubation has now been eliminated by the World Health Organization. The current best method for diagnosing tubal conditions is digital dynamic tubal iodine contrast imaging. This technology not only has diagnostic significance for infertility but also has certain therapeutic value.
