Patient's question:
Hydrosalpinx, I went to the hospital for a check-up, it's not very serious, but I've been feeling uncomfortable for a long time, and I haven't been able to get pregnant yet. Could you please tell me: what are the possible causes of hydrosalpinx formation?Doctor's answer:
Hello, hydrosalpinx is a relatively common type of chronic tubal inflammation. After tubal inflammation, or due to adhesion locking, the secretions of the mucosal cells accumulate in the lumen. Alternatively, if tubal inflammation recurs, adhesion may occur at the isthmus and fimbriae, leading to blockage and the formation of tubal abscess. When the pus cells in the lumen are absorbed, a watery liquid is eventually obtained. In some cases, the liquid is absorbed, leaving an empty shell, which appears as a hydrosalpinx shadow during imaging.For hydrosalpinx, it is essential to identify the specific cause and then treat it accordingly. I recommend that you visit a formal and reputable fertility hospital for a thorough examination to determine the exact cause and receive targeted treatment. Do not miss the best opportunity for treatment. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
