Patient's question:
I have been married to my husband for 6 years. I have always wanted a child, but I couldn't get pregnant. My husband went to the hospital for a check-up, and there were no problems with him. The doctor said it might be a blockage in my fallopian tubes. I want to get diagnosed, so I am writing to you: How can I carefully check for fallopian tube blockages?Doctor's answer:
The detailed examination for fallopian tube blockage generally involves either tubal patency testing or hysterosalpingography. Tubal patency testing can confirm whether the fallopian tubes are open or blocked and can also use anti-inflammatory drugs for local treatment, but it cannot determine the specific location and severity of the blockage. On the other hand, hysterosalpingography can provide a clear diagnosis of the blocked area and, based on the examination results, surgical or other treatments can be recommended. It is advised to pay attention to hygiene in the perineal area to reduce the occurrence of gynecological diseases.
