Patient's question:
What is the reason for blocked fallopian tubes? I have been trying to conceive for a long time but haven't been able to get pregnant. Recently, I went for a check-up and was told that my fallopian tubes are blocked. Is it serious? Please ask: What are the methods to treat blocked fallopian tubes?Doctor's answer:
Hello, the causes of fallopian tube blockage include tuberculosis, inflammation, congenital factors, etc. Inflammation is the main cause. Multiple uterine operations, including induced abortion surgery and sterilization surgery, as well as neglecting menstrual hygiene and unclean sexual practices, can lead to reproductive tract infections, resulting in fallopian tube blockage. Most patients with fallopian tube blockage do not have any symptoms and are only discovered during infertility examinations. Fallopian tube blockage is often caused by fallopian tube inflammation. The most common type is recurrent inflammatory lesions in the fallopian tubes. The cause of fallopian tube inflammation is due to pathogenic infections, with the main pathogens being Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, Escherichia coli, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Proteus, Pneumococcus, Chlamydia, etc.
