Patient's question:
How Effective Is Traditional Chinese Medicine in Treating Tubal InflammationHello! I was diagnosed with tubal inflammation after a thorough examination. The doctor said that if it's not treated promptly, it will affect the function of the fallopian tubes. If sperm and eggs cannot reunite, it may lead to tubal infertility. He urged me to have surgery immediately, but I really don't want to undergo surgery. How effective is the traditional Chinese medicine treatment for tubal inflammation? How effective is traditional Chinese medicine in treating tubal inflammation?
Doctor's answer:
Hello! The treatment of tubal inflammation depends on the patient's specific condition. Common methods include medication and surgical therapy, with traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) three-phase therapy being the most effective for medication. If the fallopian tubes are already blocked or severely adhesed, TCM treatment is not recommended because it cannot unblock the fallopian tubes. TCM treatment is only suitable for patients with mild conditions. Tubal inflammation prevents pregnancy, so treatment is necessary. However, the effectiveness of TCM treatment is poor, and laparoscopic minimally invasive dissection followed by anti-adhesion medication is the best option. The recurrence of severe tubal issues significantly affects a woman's health. Patients should maintain clean external genital hygiene and avoid sexual activity in daily life.
