Patient's question:
I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. How should hydrosalpinx be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
① Unprotected sexual activity, excessive sexual intercourse, or masturbation during menstruation may lead to reinfection and recurrent fallopian tube inflammation, potentially causing hydrosalpinx.② Improper induced abortion or childbirth, postpartum, or post-abortion and post-menstruation can result in adnexal infection, adhesion, and accumulation of mucosal cell secretions within the lumen. Additionally, recurrent inflammation of the isthmus and fimbriae of the fallopian tubes, along with the gradual accumulation of effusion and exudate in the tubal lumen, may lead to hydrosalpinx.
③ Infection from adjacent organs: Infection spread from surrounding tissues or organs, typically from genital tract inflammation such as cervicitis, endometritis, etc., in a retrograde manner. It is also seen in cases like suppurative appendicitis or peritonitis extending to the fallopian tubes in pelvic reproductive organs.
