Does induced abortion cause fallopian tube blockage?

Patient's question:

Did having an abortion once cause tubal blockage?

Doctor's answer:

Tubal blockage is often caused by factors such as miscarriage, unclean masturbation, endometriosis, pelvic infection, tuberculosis, etc., leading to adhesion, congestion, and edema of the fallopian tube wall, resulting in blockage. Patients commonly experience lower abdominal or unilateral pain, dysmenorrhea, pain during sexual intercourse, and infertility. If a woman has long-term yellow discharge with an odor, gynecological inflammation, or pelvic inflammation, it can cause and worsen the degree of blockage. Therefore, you should undergo imaging examination early to carefully check how your fallopian tubes are adhesed and blocked. You can decide to go to the hospital for a thorough examination within 2-5 days after your menstrual period, when you are not having sexual intercourse.
