Patient's question:
I had a fallopian tube examination and found that my fallopian tubes are blocked. Is this condition serious? Can I not get pregnant anymore? I am really very distressed. Please ask: Is there an effective way to treat fallopian tube blockage caused by what reason?Doctor's answer:
The most common cause of fallopian tube blockage is inflammation of the fallopian tubes or pelvic peritoneum. Inflammation can destroy the fallopian tube mucosa, leading to the formation of scars and resulting in narrowed or blocked tubal lumen. If re-injury occurs, it may cause further blockage, leading to infertility. For patients with fallopian tube blockage, some may undergo treatment with fluid infusion, while others may opt for wire-guided recanalization or fallopian tube surgery. Medication is generally not effective in resolving the issue. For cases of fallopian tube blockage that cannot be treated, in vitro fertilization (IVF) may be considered. Fallopian tube blockage is an easily occurring gynecological disease.
