How should fallopian tube blockage be diagnosed and treated?

Patient's question:

I've been married for several years now, and we still don't have any children. I'm very anxious about it and don't know if it's my problem. I've asked my husband to get checked, but he refuses. I'm very worried that my condition might worsen. Could you please tell me how to diagnose and treat fallopian tube blockage?

Doctor's answer:

Advisory on Fallopian Tube Blockage: It is recommended to undergo specific examinations first to assess the degree of blockage. If the blockage is mild, contrast imaging and tubal flushing can typically resolve it. For more severe blockages, treatment is not advisable, as the current procedure is costly and the outcomes are not very ideal. If infertility persists shortly after surgery, there is a high risk of re-adhesion and recurrence, leading to further infertility. The risk of ectopic pregnancy is also elevated. In cases of severe blockage, it is advisable to directly consider in vitro fertilization (IVF), bypassing the fallopian tubes.
Fallopian tube blockage is a condition prone to recurrence. During medication, women need to pay attention to self-care, particularly in terms of hygiene. It is recommended that patients avoid sexual activity during treatment and maintain good cleanliness. Finally, we wish all female patients a speedy recovery!
