Patient's question:
Suffering from fallopian tube blockage.Doctor's answer:
Is the treatment of fallopian tube blockage effective with Traditional Chinese Medicine? Introduction to experts from Shanghai Changjiang Hospital for Infertility. Traditional Chinese Medicine can still be quite effective for treating fallopian tube blockage, but it depends on whether you are suitable for TCM treatment. Therefore, it is recommended to go to the hospital for an examination and let the doctor make the decision. Below are several common treatment methods for blockage, which may be helpful to you:1. Tubal hydrotubation, also known as tubal irrigation.
2. Ultrasound examination: Ultrasound examination of the fallopian tubes includes routine ultrasound and ultrasound-guided hydrotubation.
3. Hysterosalpingography (HSG) with X-ray: HSG with X-ray can visualize the size, shape, and position of the uterine cavity and the morphology of the fallopian tubes on the fluoroscopy screen and X-ray images.
4. Laparoscopic examination: A dye, such as methylene blue, is injected into the uterine cavity through a uterine catheter, and the fallopian tubes are observed via laparoscopy.
The above four methods are commonly used, with tubal hydrotubation being the most frequently used but gradually phased out due to its high rate of misdiagnosis. HSG with X-ray is the most reliable, but it is essential to ensure that the technical operation is standardized and that the doctor has extensive experience in interpreting the images.
