Can I have sex before a fallopian tube check?

Do not have sex before the fallopian tube examination, as this will affect your reproductive organs and make the examination results inaccurate. You should keep your reproductive organs clean and tidy. Before the examination, you need to disinfect your vulva and the inside of your vagina to prevent bacteria from invading during the examination. In addition, you need to undergo a hysteroscopy examination.

The examination process: First, the vulva and vagina will be routinely disinfected, sterile towels will be laid, and the position and size of the uterus will be checked. Use a vaginal speculum to dilate the vagina and fully expose the cervix; disinfect the cervix and vaginal vault again, clamp the anterior lip of the cervix with a cervical forceps, and explore the uterine cavity. If a metal catheter is used, fill the catheter with contrast agent and expel the air; finally, insert the catheter into the cervix and block the external cervical opening to prevent the contrast agent from overflowing. Observe the flow of contrast agent through the uterine cavity and fallopian tube under X-ray fluoroscopy and take films. X-ray hysterosalpingography is a better examination method.

1. After the hysterosalpingography examination, women will have abnormal vaginal bleeding, abdominal pain and other phenomena. At this time, they can take the medicine given by the doctor to achieve the anti-inflammatory effect, and these symptoms will disappear within 1 week.

2. Hysteroscopy can reveal the basic cause of infertility and observe whether there are polyps, adhesions, etc. in the uterine horns and the interstitial part of the fallopian tubes. Clinically confirmed, adhesions, polyps, fibroids, etc. are common causes of infertility.

3. In the past, examinations or treatments were mostly performed using intrauterine fluid injection, intrauterine gas injection, hysteroscopy or laparotomy under direct vision. These methods often have side effects such as complications of infection, allergies, and vascular damage.

4. In addition, female patients who undergo fallopian tube insufflation may experience abdominal pain, abnormal increase in leucorrhea, etc. If similar symptoms occur for a long time, you should pay attention to avoid worsening of inflammation.

The time for angiography is chosen to be within 3 to 7 days after the end of menstruation. For patients with irregular menstruation, it can be delayed to 10 days. For patients with particularly irregular menstruation, such as amenorrhea, it can be done at any time, but the possibility of pregnancy must be ruled out. For a very small number of women, there will be a small amount of vaginal bleeding in the first month after pregnancy. Therefore, women with scanty menstruation or amenorrhea must rule out the possibility of pregnancy.
