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 my fallopian tubes are blocked. Is that serious? Where is the best place to have the fallopian tubes cleared?Doctor's answer:
Hello, medication can be infused into the uterine cavity and fallopian tubes through the vagina, allowing the drug to come into contact with the lesion, which can reduce local inflammation, edema, and inhibit the formation and expansion of fibrous tissue, thereby achieving the goal of dissolving and softening adhesions. During medication infusion, a certain pressure is applied to ensure that the adhesions are sealed. Western medications such as antibiotics, hormones, and proteolytic enzymes are commonly used. A 20-milliliter solution of normal saline is usually infused into the uterine cavity. The procedure is performed 3-4 days after the menstrual period, once every other day, for a total of 2-3 times, and continued for 2-3 weeks.If the above treatment methods for fallopian tube blockage are ineffective, hysterosalpingography can confirm the blocked area, and surgical intervention, fallopian tubeoplasty, or other treatments may be considered.
After fallopian tube irrigation, sexual intercourse should be avoided for two weeks, and anti-inflammatory medication should be taken for three days. Bathing should be avoided.
