Patient's question:
I've been married for several years, and so far, we don't have any children. I'm very anxious about it and don't know if it's my problem. I've asked my husband to get checked, but he refuses. I'm very worried that my condition might worsen. How can I check if my fallopian tubes are open?Doctor's answer:
Hysterosalpingography (HSG) is an X-ray-based imaging procedure where a contrast dye is injected through a catheter into the uterine cavity and fallopian tubes. Using X-ray fluoroscopy and radiography, the procedure assesses the patency of the fallopian tubes, identifies any blockages, and evaluates the shape of the uterine cavity based on the distribution of the contrast dye in the tubes and pelvic region.There are many causes of fallopian tube blockage, and patients need to receive timely and appropriate treatment. It is recommended to seek treatment at a Grade III-A hospital. Pay attention to the progression of your condition and avoid uncontrolled treatments. Additionally, maintaining good lifestyle habits and personal hygiene is crucial. Wishing you a speedy recovery!
