Patient's question:
I have been trying to conceive with my husband for two years, but we haven't been able to get pregnant. I don't know if it's because of blocked fallopian tubes. Yesterday, I had a thorough check-up with a traditional Chinese medicine doctor, who said it might be a tumor and recommended that I have a transvaginal ultrasound. But I just want to ask if a transvaginal ultrasound can accurately detect a tumor in the fallopian tubes?Doctor's answer:
Based on the described situation, not being able to conceive for two years indicates infertility. The first consideration should be the possibility of a problem with the fallopian tubes. An ultrasound examination can be considered, as it can help identify whether the fallopian tubes may have tumors. It can also help rule out uterine inflammation and ovarian changes. If necessary, a fallopian tube patency test or hysterosalpingography may be required to determine if there are any blockages in the fallopian tubes.Fallopian tube tumors are a common gynecological condition. During treatment, women should pay attention to their self-care. It is recommended to maintain clean external genital hygiene and change underwear frequently.
