Patient's question:
The doctor performed a tubal patency test and used sodium bicarbonate. Does it have an alkaline property? Because I want a boy, she said it can be adjusted. What should I do if the doctor performs a tubal dilation and irrigation?Doctor's answer:
In general, tubal irrigation is usually performed using anti-inflammatory drugs such as metronidazole or gentamicin. Sodium bicarbonate is an alkaline drug, but it is generally not used for irrigation. There is no scientific basis for adjusting the gender of the baby. It is recommended that you go to a regular hospital for a thorough examination. Whether you conceive a boy or a girl, the chances are 50-50, whether you adjust or not. Do not believe rumors and delay treatment. For patients with tubal conditions, in addition to regular treatment, it is also necessary to pay attention to self-care training. It is recommended that patients avoid sexual activity during treatment and pay attention to hygiene.
