Patient's question:
I went to the hospital for a thorough check to see if my fallopian tubes are open. When the doctor inserted the tube, it hurt me so badly that I felt like I was dying. After the procedure, I couldn't even walk. When I got home, the pain still persisted. Is this type of insertion likely to cause any permanent damage to the fallopian tubes or anything like that?Doctor's answer:
Go to the hospital for a thorough examination to check if the fallopian tubes are open, mainly through a fluid infusion test or a contrast test. The catheter is only inserted into the uterine cavity and does not reach the fallopian tubes. The liquid infused only passes through the fallopian tubes, which is harmless to them. If you experience significant pain, it may indicate a higher likelihood of fallopian tube blockage, as the liquid enters the uterine cavity and encounters resistance through the fallopian tubes. You need targeted treatment under the guidance of a doctor, which can include local therapy, combined with oral medication.
