Patient's question:
I am 18 years old now. Currently, only a transvaginal ultrasound was performed, which indicated bilateral tubal effusion. I haven't had a hysterosalpingogram yet. My period was supposed to come on the 9th of this month, but it hasn't arrived yet on the 10th. The lower abdomen has started to hurt in the past two days. I previously visited our local maternal and child health hospital and traditional Chinese medicine hospital. The medicine prescribed by the traditional Chinese medicine hospital has a pain-relieving effect. I don't want to get pregnant and don't want to have a laparoscopy. Are there any other treatment options?Doctor's answer:
Mainly, it depends on your usual symptoms. If you don't have any discomfort, there's no point in doing a thorough examination now. Since you don't plan to get pregnant in the near future, even if the fallopian tubes are blocked, there's a possibility of re-adhesion after treatment. It's recommended to wait until after the examination and treatment to consider pregnancy. For patients with fallopian tube effusion, in addition to regular treatment, it's also important to pay attention to self-care. For example, pay more attention to personal hygiene, avoid sexual activity during medication, maintain cleanliness, do not have sex, and eat less spicy and irritating foods.
