Post-Tubal Irrigation Precautions

Patient's question:

Just finished the hydrotubation. During the procedure, I didn't feel much, just a cool sensation in the lower abdomen. The doctor said both sides are clear. I asked him why I haven't gotten pregnant yet, and he said it's because I'm too stressed. So frustrated. I'm asking those who have had this done, what should I pay attention to right after the hydrotubation?

Doctor's answer:

The main precautions are as follows:
1. Some small blood streaks may appear in vaginal discharge. Experts explain that this is mainly because, during the surgery, the cervix is held with cervical forceps, which causes minor damage to the cervix. There is no need to worry too much.
2. After the surgery, patients may still experience mild abdominal discomfort. Experts remind women that they can use warm compresses to alleviate the pain.
3. After tubal irrigation, women are advised to lie flat for one to two hours. This can increase the duration of the medication's effect in the fallopian tubes, yielding unexpected results.
4. If fluid is observed flowing from the vagina into the patient's uterine cavity, experts advise patients not to worry excessively, as this is normal.
