Patient's question:
What is the reason for tubal blockage? I have been trying to conceive for a long time but have not been able to get pregnant. Recently, I went for a check-up and was told that my fallopian tubes are blocked. Is it serious?Where should I go for tubal blockage treatment?
Doctor's answer:
Fallopian tube blockage requires additional treatment based on the location of the blockage. The best treatment for blockages in the interstitial part and isthmus of the fallopian tube is transcatheter recanalization using X-ray guidance, with a recanalization rate of over 90% and a postoperative pregnancy rate of 50%. For ampullary blockages, there is no effective clinical treatment, and in vitro fertilization (IVF) may be considered. For fimbrial blockage (hydrosalpinx), fimbrial ostomy can be performed, including laparoscopic ostomy and open surgical ostomy. The postoperative pregnancy rate is over 20%. It is recommended to choose a regular hospital in your local area. The recurrence of fallopian tube blockage severely threatens women's health, and patients need to pay attention to maintaining external genital cleanliness and avoiding sexual activity in daily life. We hope that female patients can receive professional treatment.
