Patient's question:
Always not pregnant, the lower abdomen often feels a bit painful. After checking at the hospital, it was found that the fallopian tubes are blocked. How is the best treatment for blocked fallopian tubes?Doctor's answer:
Treatment for fallopian tube blockage requires additional therapy based on the location of the blockage. The optimal treatment for blockages in the interstitial or isthmus segments of the fallopian tube is transcatheter interventional recanalization under X-ray guidance, with a recanalization rate of over 90% and a postoperative pregnancy rate of 50%. For ampullary blockages, there are no effective clinical treatments, and in vitro fertilization (IVF) may be considered. For fimbrial blockage (hydrosalpinx), fimbrial ostomy can be performed, including laparoscopic ostomy and open surgical ostomy. The postoperative pregnancy rate is over 20%. Without knowing the specific location of your fallopian tube blockage, I cannot provide a clear recommendation. For patients with fallopian tube issues, in addition to standard treatment, it is also important to focus on self-care, such as maintaining cleanliness and avoiding sexual intercourse.
