Patient's question:
Infertility with bilateral tubal hydropsDoctor's answer:
Hello, hydrosalpinx is one of the causes of infertility. It is commonly found after tubitis, or due to adhesions and occlusion, where the secretions of the mucosal cells accumulate in the lumen of the tube. Alternatively, it may form tubal abscess due to adhesions at the isthmus and fimbriae caused by tubal inflammation, leading to obstruction. After the pus cells in the lumen are absorbed, it eventually becomes a watery liquid. At this time, the follicles cannot be expelled smoothly, thus affecting fertility. It is recommended to seek professional medical attention for a detailed examination and treatment promptly.
