Can women with blocked fallopian tubes still ovulate?

Patient's question:

Go to the hospital for a check-up, the doctor said I have slightly blocked fallopian tubes. Does this mean I can't get pregnant anymore? Can I still ovulate with blocked fallopian tubes?

Doctor's answer:

Tubal blockage has little to do with ovarian function and generally does not affect ovulation. However, whether it is tubal blockage or ovulation disorders, both can affect fertility. Tubal blockage is often caused by factors such as induced abortion, spontaneous abortion, medication-induced abortion, miscarriage, unsafe sex, and pelvic infection, leading to adhesion, congestion, and edema of the fallopian tube wall, which blocks the passage and prevents sperm from combining with eggs, ultimately resulting in infertility. In this case, the most advanced three-mirror combined technique—tuboscopy, hysteroscopy, and laparoscopy—can be used to directly treat the affected area and clear the reproductive passage. This technique is painless, has a quick recovery time, and has a high pregnancy rate. It is recommended that you visit a specialized hospital for a detailed examination to determine the best treatment plan.
