Patient's question:
Last year, I had surgery to remove my right fallopian tube due to an ectopic pregnancy. Now I want to conceive, so I had a hysterosalpingogram (HSG) on my left fallopian tube. The report says the tube wall is irregular, with uneven thickness, and it is mostly unobstructed. What treatment do you recommend? Can I conceive directly like this?Doctor's answer:
The fallopian tubes are still open. If you are preparing for pregnancy, I recommend taking folic acid tablets. Since they are basically open, and since the hydrotubation treatment was administered this past half month, it's not easy to conceive. Therefore, you should receive intravenous treatment for a week. The intravenous treatment for a week is for anti-inflammatory purposes. Next month, we will start monitoring the data of follicular development to see which side the follicle is developing on. If it's on the left side, this month you should focus on monitoring the follicle's maturation and have intercourse to increase the chances of conception. For ectopic pregnancy patients, while understanding and taking medication according to symptoms, you can also use folk remedies as supplementary treatment in daily life. In daily diet, it's crucial to avoid being overly hungry or overly full, and never overeat or binge drink.
