Patient's question:
My aunt has blocked fallopian tubes. Today, I accompanied her for a detailed and thorough examination. I would like to ask a few questions: Does a thorough examination for blocked fallopian tubes cause pain?Doctor's answer:
Hello, your older sister has a condition of fallopian tube blockage. Generally, a thorough examination of fallopian tube blockage mainly involves a tubal patency test or further contrast examination. This type of examination does not involve surgical trauma; it simply involves injecting liquid into the uterine cavity. Most of the time, it is not accompanied by significant pain, but there may be some discomfort. Usually, it is best to perform the examination within 3 to 7 days after the menstrual period ends. Through the examination, the blockage of the fallopian tubes can be assessed.
