Patient's question:
I've been married for 5 years without getting pregnant, and I've already prepared for the test tube. Recently, I had a thorough check-up on my fallopian tubes and found mild (fluid accumulation) on the right side and significant (fluid accumulation) on the left side. If I undergo laparoscopic surgery for bilateral tubal (fluid accumulation), will it be effective? Should I go directly for the test tube or have the surgery first?Doctor's answer:
With hydrosalpinx, laparoscopic surgery is generally an effective treatment. It's also important to monitor for symptoms like abdominal pain or excessive discharge, but there's no need to be overly anxious. However, it's crucial to check if your menstrual cycle is normal. After surgery, if the fallopian tubes are clear, pregnancy can usually be achieved within about 3 months. Therefore, it's still important to rest during these days and monitor the condition of your follicles.
