Can infertility tests rule out infertility?

Patient's question:

It is estradiol, follicle-stimulating hormone, luteinizing hormone, prolactin, progesterone, testosterone, and anti-sperm antibodies, anti-endometrial antibodies, anti-cardiolipin antibodies, anti-ovarian antibodies, anti-HCG antibodies. These tests can determine if the eggs are normal and if the fallopian tubes are open.

Doctor's answer:

A hormone panel test can assess ovarian function and follicular development, while the infertility panel of 5 tests examines immune factors, determining whether immune infertility is present but cannot assess whether fallopian tubes are patent.
Advice: To determine if fallopian tubes are patent, a fallopian tube or test should be performed 3-7 days after menstruation. Blood tests cannot evaluate the condition of fallopian tubes. Avoid sexual activity, vaginal medication insertion, and vaginal irrigation before the test.
