Is there a relationship between polyps at the fallopian tube fimbriae and infertility?

Patient's question:

I have been married for more than four years and still haven't become pregnant. After a thorough examination at the hospital, it was found that there are polyps at the fimbriae of the fallopian tubes. I would like to ask, are polyps at the fimbriae of the fallopian tubes related to infertility?

Doctor's answer:

Polyps in the fimbriae of the fallopian tubes may be related to infertility, as the primary function of the fimbriae is to pick up eggs. The recurrence of polyps indicates inflammation, which can affect the egg-picking function and thus may lead to infertility. However, since there are two fallopian tubes (one on each side), if only one tube has polyps and the other is normal, it is still possible to conceive normally. Therefore, the fact that you have been married for more than four years without pregnancy is not entirely due to polyps in the fimbriae of the fallopian tubes. It is necessary to investigate other causes and receive targeted treatment under the guidance of a doctor.
