Patient's question:
The doctor said I have hydrosalpinx and it can't be seen on ultrasound. What should I do? Is my condition very serious?Doctor's answer:
If the hydrosalpinx is relatively small, it may not be visible on ultrasound. In such cases, you can start with symptomatic treatment using antibiotics while also ensuring adequate rest, avoiding strenuous exercise, and maintaining a light diet. Avoid spicy and irritating foods. Additionally, it is advisable to refrain from sexual activity during the infection period and not rush to get pregnant. Otherwise, it may lead to ectopic pregnancy or infertility. Hydrosalpinx is a common gynecological condition that tends to recur. During treatment, women should pay close attention to self-care. It is recommended to prioritize maintaining good hygiene in the vaginal area and adhering to a light diet.
