Patient's question:
Female, I haven't breastfed for two years, and my sexual life is basically normal. I had a pre-pregnancy checkup, and the doctor directly diagnosed me with infertility, telling me to directly get a six-hormone test and fallopian tube. I want to know if these are mandatory tests? Because when I went to schedule the fallopian tube, the doctor said it was strange to schedule this project without doing any thorough checks. Since I'm from a different place and am not familiar with this area, I want to ask what tests I should do in my situation. Besides, is the success rate of fallopian tube high? Are the side effects significant?Doctor's answer:
Normal sexual life for two years, without breastfeeding but still not pregnant, can indeed be diagnosed as infertility.2. Tubal contrast is not a treatment, but just an examination method, and it is a necessary examination item. This examination uses a contrast agent to inject into the uterine cavity, and then takes X-ray photos to check the condition of the bilateral fallopian tubes. It is very simple and does not have a success rate issue.
3. This examination has no side effects, and it also helps to open up the fallopian tubes during the examination.
4. At least a routine vaginal discharge test, blood routine test, and transvaginal ultrasound of the uterine appendages should be done before this examination.
