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: What should be done if you have blocked fallopian tubes?Doctor's answer:
Hello, if a woman's fallopian tubes have issues, it may potentially interfere with the ovaries, causing damage to their normal function, which can then lead to irregular menstrual cycles such as excessive menstrual flow or prolonged periods. Therefore, if a woman discovers such abnormal conditions, she should seek medical attention promptly to avoid missing the opportunity for treatment and to alleviate the condition. The main causes of fallopian tube blockage are: infections and adhesions. Most fallopian tube diseases are caused by infections, particularly infections of pelvic inflammatory disease. Other possible causes of infection include: post-abortion infections or post-surgical complications.
