Patient's question:
Female, 40 years old! Already has two children. Recently, she has been feeling discomfort in the lower abdomen and waist. After checking at the hospital, it was said that her fallopian tubes were blocked. In her case, what are the causes of fallopian tube adhesion?Doctor's answer:
1. Infection after gynecological surgery. When women undergo gynecological surgeries such as IUD insertion or removal or tubal contrast examinations, if sterilization is not effective or if their own inflammation is not treated, this can lead to postoperative infection in women. Of course, some patients may also develop bacterial downward infection due to ignoring medical advice and neglecting personal hygiene after surgery.2. Inflammation spread. If adjacent tissues or organs in women suffer from inflammation, it often spreads to the vicinity of the fallopian tubes. Common examples include recurrent appendicitis or peritonitis, which can spread and cause pelvic inflammation in women, thereby affecting the fallopian tubes.
3. Lack of hygiene during menstruation. During menstruation, due to the shedding of the endometrium, the blood sinuses in the uterine cavity are in an open state, which provides a favorable condition for bacteria to invade.
