Patient's question:
I went to a women's and children's hospital in Dongcheng last month to check if my fallopian tubes were open. Later, the doctor said the front was blocked but the back was open, and explained it very vaguely. The doctor recommended treatment and said it would last for three months, with three sessions each month. The doctor mentioned that this hospital has a three-month course for all patients—is that correct? However, I heard from another patient who went with me that other hospitals only need to do it once, so she only did it once and didn't come back. I'm not sure if that's really the case. Moreover, the doctor performed a hydrotubation on me only after I requested it, and there was no prior check to see if my tubes were open or any suggestions mentioned. They also prescribed four doses of medicine, but I only took three.Doctor's answer:
Hello: It is mainly determined based on the situation after treatment. So, it is not absolute!Hydrostatic tubal patency testing is a procedure used to diagnose the degree of tubal patency and treat mild blockages. Traditional tubal patency testing still has many hazards, causing distress to many patients and often misleading doctors' judgments. In hospitals that meet the conditions, tubal contrast imaging has now completely replaced tubal patency testing.
Tubal contrast imaging is currently one of the most widely used methods in clinical practice. It can provide accurate diagnoses of tubal blockages and has certain therapeutic effects. It is the most commonly used examination method to assess whether the fallopian tubes are patent, the degree of patency, and the specific location of blockages.
