How to check for fallopian tube inflammation?

Patient's question:

I've been married for almost five years, but I've been trying to get pregnant for three years without success. I went to the hospital for a thorough check-up, and both my husband and I were examined, but there were no major issues. The doctor suggested that I might have tubal inflammation, which could also be related to my infertility, and recommended that I get tested.
What kind of help I need: How to thoroughly check for tubal inflammation?

Doctor's answer:

Salpingitis, also known as adnexitis, is a common disease among women. Patients experience pain on one side of the abdomen and thickening of the adnexa. It tends to recur during periods of exertion or before and after menstruation. If adnexitis is severe, it may lead to fallopian tube blockage, which is one of the common causes of infertility. It is recommended that you undergo fallopian tube hydrotubation imaging to determine the cause before implementing the correct treatment.
