Is fallopian tube pain a sign of pregnancy?

The main function of the fallopian tubes is to transport the eggs to the uterus. If there is a problem, infertility can easily occur. At the same time, the fallopian tubes are also prone to lesions. After the lesions occur, they can only be examined through hysterosalpingography to determine whether the fallopian tubes are blocked or inflamed. So, if there is tingling in the fallopian tubes, does it mean that you are pregnant? Actually, it’s not.

Fallopian tube inflammation usually refers to inflammation of the fallopian tubes in the human body, which is often accompanied by lower abdominal pain, abnormal menstruation, dysmenorrhea, etc. Inflammation of the fallopian tubes may cause adhesion, congestion, edema and blockage of the fallopian tube walls, leading to infertility.

1. Cause pain:

Unlike dysmenorrhea, patients will also feel bloating and pain in the lower abdomen and unbearable back pain during non-menstrual periods.

2. Affecting sexual life:

This is also the most common symptom of salpingitis. Patients often experience worsening symptoms during menstruation or after fatigue. At the same time, there is an abnormal increase in vaginal discharge, abnormal increase in menstrual volume, lumbar pain, and some patients experience pain during intercourse, which seriously affects women's sexual life.

3. Ectopic pregnancy:

If fallopian tube inflammation is too severe, it will cause complete blockage of the lumen and lead to infertility. In mild cases, pregnancy will be affected. In severe cases, ectopic pregnancy will occur because the fertilized egg cannot reach the uterine cavity, endangering the life and health of women.

4. Leading to female infertility:

Inflammation of the fallopian tubes is the most common cause of female infertility. Once the fallopian tube becomes inflamed, it will cause atresia of the fimbria or damage to the fallopian tube mucosa, which will eventually lead to fallopian tube occlusion and female infertility.

General treatment

Rest in bed in a semi-recumbent position to help localize the inflammation and prevent it from spreading upward. Pay attention to nutritional supplementation and maintaining water and electrolyte balance. After the diagnosis is clear, antipyretic and analgesic drugs can be used appropriately.

Infection Control

Based on pathogenic microorganisms and drug sensitivity tests, try to choose effective antibiotics appropriately, with sufficient dosage and thorough and effective anti-inflammatory effect.

Surgery

For patients with salpingitis, immediate surgery should be performed to remove the lesions to prevent the inflammation from spreading rapidly into sepsis and endangering life. For localized pelvic abscesses, if fullness and fluctuation can be felt in the posterior fornix, incision and drainage can be performed.
