Fallopian tube obstruction test items

For women, fallopian tube obstruction means that the possibility of conception is greatly reduced, and even infertility may occur. Therefore, many women with fallopian tube obstruction want to have a fallopian tube obstruction examination in order not to affect their fertility. So what are the examination items for fallopian tube obstruction? In order for you to understand it as soon as possible, please take a look at the detailed introduction below.

The main items for examination of fallopian tube obstruction are as follows:

1. Basal body temperature measurement: Progesterone increases body temperature through the body temperature regulation center, causing the basal body temperature to show a biphasic pattern in a normal menstrual cycle. That is, the basal body temperature in the second half of the menstrual cycle is 0.4°C~0.6°C higher than that in the first half, indicating that the ovarian function includes ovulation and corpus luteum formation.

2. Examination of cervical mucus crystals: Estrogen makes the cervical mucus thinner, more stringy, and contains fern-like crystals. The more obvious and thicker the fern-like crystals are, the more significant the effect of estrogen is. If rows of ellipses are seen on the smear, it indicates that the hormone progesterone has been affected in addition to the action of estrogen.

3. Blood steroid hormone determination: Radioimmunoassay of estradiol, progesterone and testosterone. If the estrogen and progesterone concentrations are low, it indicates abnormal ovarian function or failure. If the testosterone level is high, it may indicate polycystic ovary syndrome, ovarian masculinization tumor or testicular feminization.

4. Vaginal exfoliated cell examination: Observe the percentage of surface, middle and bottom layer cells. The higher the percentage of surface layer cells, the higher the estrogen level. The smears of patients with premature ovarian failure show varying degrees of low estrogen levels or persistent mild estrogen effects.

The above is a comprehensive introduction to the examination items for fallopian tube obstruction for many women. Therefore, if your fallopian tubes are obstructed, you must undergo effective examinations as soon as possible. After a comprehensive examination, you will understand the cause of your fallopian tube obstruction, and then through effective unblocking, you can increase your chances of becoming pregnant.
