Patient's question:
Hello, doctor. I've been married for more than half a year and haven't been able to get pregnant. But sometimes I feel pain on one side of my abdomen. My menstrual cycle is quite regular. Does this mean that my ovulation isn't a problem? Is it possible that I can't get pregnant because of a problem with my fallopian tubes? If the fallopian tubes aren't open, how can I be checked to find out?Doctor's answer:
Hello! The causes of infertility are complex, and fallopian tube blockage is a common reason for female infertility. The fallopian tubes play a crucial role in transporting sperm, capturing eggs, and delivering fertilized eggs to the uterine cavity. When the fallopian tubes are blocked, it obstructs the passage of sperm and fertilized eggs, leading to infertility or ectopic pregnancy. If the fallopian tube blockage is caused by pelvic inflammation, it may be accompanied by symptoms such as lower abdominal pain, back pain, increased secretions, and pain during intercourse.Advice: I recommend that you visit a hospital for a comprehensive examination to identify the cause of your infertility. If you only want to check the fallopian tubes, an imaging test (such as a hysterosalpingogram) is advisable. I hope my answer is helpful to you.
