Does tubal hydrops affect fertility?

Patient's question:

I'm not that old, but I've been married for three years and haven't had any children yet. My husband and mother-in-law have been urging me to get checked recently. I only went yesterday, and the results showed that I have hydrosalpinx in my fallopian tubes. Does hydrosalpinx affect fertility?

Doctor's answer:

Hello: Tubal effusion is caused by long-term inflammatory stimulation. If it is in the early stage of inflammation, it can be treated with medication. If it has already formed effusion, the effect of medication is not very ideal, and long-term tubal effusion will affect the function of the fallopian tubes, which will further affect future fertility. It is recommended that you seek treatment early. Wish you health!
