Patient's question:
I have a female neighbor who has been married for two years, but I haven't seen them have any children. I heard from my mom that both of her fallopian tubes are blocked. I always thought there was only one fallopian tube, but how many are there?Doctor's answer:
The fallopian tubes include two fallopian tubes, the left and the right. Their main function is to inject eggs and fertilized eggs. Diseases related to the fallopian tubes include fallopian tube disease, fallopian tube hydrops, and fallopian tube obstruction. The recurrence of these conditions is often caused by inflammation. Daily neglect of sexual hygiene and retrograde menstruation, as well as poor external genital hygiene, may all be contributing factors. Severe fallopian tube inflammation can easily lead to female infertility. If you have been married for more than a year without using contraception and have not been able to conceive, it is advisable to get a fallopian tube check-up as soon as possible.
