Doctor's answer:
Women with chronic tubal inflammation experience recurrent adhesions of the mucosal folds within the tube wall, causing the lumen to narrow. Additionally, due to inflammation and its effects, the cilia of the tubal mucosa become scarred, the smooth muscle contractions of the tube wall weaken, making it difficult for the fertilized egg to reach the uterine cavity. In cases of tubal developmental abnormalities or malformations, such as poorly developed muscle layers, a lack of cilia in the endometrium, and other inflammatory conditions, the function of the fallopian tube in transporting the fertilized egg is impaired. Tubal deformities such as bending, spiral shapes, double tubal ostia, or other underdeveloped tubal malformations, along with inflammation, also make it difficult for the fertilized egg to reach the uterine cavity smoothly.
