Patient's question:
I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried it might affect fertility, and I also feel extremely cold and afraid of the cold. What happens with hydrosalpinx? What if it's not treated in time?Doctor's answer:
Hello, hydrosalpinx is caused by chronic tubal inflammation or pelvic inflammatory disease leading to adhesion of the fimbriae of the fallopian tubes, preventing the fluid from being expelled from the lumen, which gradually accumulates or forms due to changes in purulent fluid within the lumen. In such cases, the fusion of sperm and egg is more likely to encounter problems, reducing fertility or causing complete infertility. The treatment methods for tubal inflammation vary depending on the condition, and the decision is based on the imaging results from the contrast examination. Hydrosalpinx is an easily occurring gynecological disease. During medication, women need to pay attention to their own care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is recommended that patients pay close attention to maintaining clean external genitalia and changing underwear frequently. Finally, we wish female patients a speedy recovery!
