Patient's question:
Just last half a month, I had an ultrasound and found that my fallopian tubes are blocked. One doctor said to soak in water, another said it's adhesion. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
It is necessary to conduct a hysterosalpingogram to carefully check how the fallopian tubes are blocked. This examination is recommended to be performed between the second and seventh day after menstruation. Treatment for fallopian tube blockage should be implemented based on the location of the blockage. The best treatment for blockages in the interstitial part and isthmus of the fallopian tubes is the use of X-ray-guided transcatheter recanalization, with a recanalization rate of over 90% and a postoperative pregnancy rate of 50%. For blockages in the ampulla of the fallopian tube, there is no effective clinical treatment, and in vitro fertilization can be considered. For fimbrial blockage (hydrosalpinx), fimbrial ostomy can be performed, which includes laparoscopic ostomy and open surgery ostomy. The postoperative pregnancy rate is over 20%.
