Patient's question:
I always feel a pain on one side of my lower abdomen, and during my menstrual period, this symptom becomes particularly noticeable. I went to the hospital for a thorough examination and found that I have hydrosalpinx. Now I'm really worried. I want to ask what are the causes of hydrosalpinx? Does having this disease mean I can't have children?Doctor's answer:
Hydrosalpinx, which is a condition where the fallopian tubes are inflamed, is usually caused by chronic inflammation. This can affect normal conception. Active treatment is necessary. Currently, pregnancy is not recommended because it is unlikely to be successful. Even if pregnancy occurs, it can easily lead to a significantly increased risk of ectopic pregnancy. Active treatment is required, and surgery may be necessary if needed.
