After undergoing fallopian tube, what preventive measures should be taken?

Patient's question:

I've been married for many years, but we haven't been able to conceive. That's when I found out I have infertility. Yesterday, with my family's encouragement, I went to the hospital. The doctor recommended that I have a fallopian tube. But I heard from others that the is very painful. But for the sake of the child, I still did it. Now, I just want to ask, what preventive measures should I take after the fallopian tube?

Doctor's answer:

After contrast, avoid tub baths and sexual activity for two weeks. Antibiotics may be administered as needed to prevent infection. Sometimes, severe pain in the fallopian tubes may cause a false impression of fallopian tube blockage. If necessary, the procedure may be repeated.
A small amount of vaginal bleeding within one week after the examination, if accompanied by no other discomfort, is considered normal. It is recommended to avoid pregnancy for three months after the examination to minimize the potential effects of X-ray exposure. However, clinical observations have found that pregnancy during the same month after contrast does not increase the risk of fetal abnormalities.
For severe gynecological conditions, it is advisable to seek medical attention early and follow the doctor's recommendations for timely treatment. Avoid blindly relying on over-the-counter medications, as this may worsen the condition.
