Patient's question:
Hello, I have been married for over two years and have been infertile. I have a blocked right fallopian tube and an elevated left fimbria.Doctor's answer:
Uterine tube blockage is one of the important reasons for female infertility. The blockage of the fallopian tubes is mainly caused by inflammation spreading from the endometrium upwards, first leading to inflammatory changes in the fallopian tube mucosa. The fallopian tube epithelium undergoes degenerative changes or patchy shedding, resulting in adhesion of the fallopian tube mucosa, followed by occlusion of the fallopian tube lumen or fimbriae, affecting fertility.Advice: If the fallopian tubes are blocked, the cause must be identified first. Blockage of the fallopian tubes can be caused by various factors such as infection, cysts, etc. It is also necessary to determine the location of the blockage—whether it is in the proximal, middle, or distal part—since different causes and locations require different treatment methods. Corresponding treatment methods include interventional therapy under ultrasound guidance, fluid infusion, integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine treatment, and combined hysteroscopic and laparoscopic treatment. It is recommended to go to the hospital for examination and formulate a corresponding treatment plan based on your individual condition. Targeted treatment can significantly increase the chances of successful conception.
