Patient's question:
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 I have hydrosalpinx. Is it serious? Please ask: What should I do if I have hydrosalpinx?Doctor's answer:
Hydrosalpinx can greatly affect a person's fertility. When hydrosalpinx occurs, it stimulates the blocked fallopian tubes of women for a long time. If the fallopian tubes are stimulated for a long time, they may develop fallopian tube blockage.Generally speaking, there are no typical symptoms, the most common manifestation being infertility. The fallopian tubes play an important role in transporting sperm, absorbing eggs, and moving the fertilized egg to the uterine cavity. If the fallopian tubes are blocked, it obstructs the passage of sperm and the fertilized egg, leading to infertility or ectopic pregnancy. If the fallopian tube obstruction is caused by pelvic inflammation, it may be accompanied by lower abdominal pain, back pain, increased secretions, and dyspareunia. Hydrosalpinx can easily lead to female fallopian tube blockage, resulting in infertility.
