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.

Hello, the common causes of fallopian tube blockage are primary and secondary.1. Secondary fallopian tube blockage, which is caused by acquired factors, is very common. It is triggered by various disease factors and human factors, making it one of the main causes of fallopian tube blockage. Secondary causes can be divided into mechanical and pathological.
2. Primary fallopian tube blockage, which is congenital and present from birth, is extremely rare.
