How long after irrigation can coitus be resumed?

Patient's question:

Detailed medical condition and consultation purpose:
I had tubal hydrotubation on the afternoon of November 26th. It was said that my tubes were patent but not unobstructed. Could you please let me know how long it will take to recover and whether I can resume sexual activity?
Thank you, expert!

Doctor's answer:

Hello, it is best to conceive after one month. Fallopian tube blockage can also affect normal conception, making it difficult to get pregnant or leading to ectopic pregnancy. Additionally, during treatment, sexual activity must be avoided. This is because the fluid infusion procedure causes local trauma, which can easily lead to infection, so appropriate anti-inflammatory treatment should be administered. After the fluid infusion, adhesions may be separated, but if the fallopian tubes are still not fully open, pregnancy during this time may result in ectopic pregnancy, leading to the occurrence of ectopic pregnancy. In severe cases, it can even be life-threatening.
