How to treat blocked fallopian tubes?

In daily life, more and more people are suffering from infertility. Both men and women can experience infertility. However, in general, there are many reasons for female infertility. Fallopian tube blockage is a very common phenomenon. Most female infertility is caused by fallopian tube blockage. Once the fallopian tube is blocked, the egg cannot combine with the sperm, so active treatment is needed.

How to treat blocked fallopian tubes?

1. Physical therapy

A common method of treating fallopian tube obstruction is physical therapy, which plays a very important role in the treatment of fallopian tube obstruction. In the early stages, some superficial physical therapy is usually used. However, local treatment can only improve local blood circulation, and has little effect on the treatment of fallopian tube blockage in the abdominal cavity.

2. Drug treatment

The main cause of fallopian tube blockage is gynecological inflammation, which is mostly caused by the ascending of bacteria. Gynecological inflammation is short-term, but the fallopian tube blockage caused by it is permanent. Although antibacterial drug treatment is effective, it can only eliminate inflammation, so the drug is used as an auxiliary treatment.

3. Injection therapy

Under hysteroscopy, therapeutic fluid is injected into the fallopian tube cavity of female patients, which will cause partial adhesion of the fallopian tube cavity and separate and clear some mild to moderate blockage symptoms to a certain extent.

Causes of Fallopian Tube Blockage

1. Gynecological inflammation

Chronic pelvic inflammatory disease can often lead to partial or complete closure of the end of the fallopian tube that receives the egg, or cause adhesions in the inner mucosa of the fallopian tube, causing the lumen to narrow or close. If the inflammation is severe, it can cause the fallopian tube to lose its soft and peristaltic physiological properties, become stiff and twisted, and completely block the lumen, eventually causing the woman to lose her fertility. Salpingitis can cause adhesions in the narrowest part and fimbria of the fallopian tube, resulting in stenosis or complete closure of the lumen, leading to infertility.

2. Appendectomy perforation

Women with a history of appendectomy have an increased chance of developing fallopian tube damage. This is because the distance between the appendix and the fallopian tube is very close, so the infection at the appendix can easily spread to the fallopian tube, causing inflammation of the fallopian tube, and eventually adhesion and blockage, leading to infertility.

3. Pelvic Adhesions

This condition usually covers the ovaries and the ends of the fallopian tubes, or it may adhere the fallopian tubes to other tissues. Especially for women who have undergone pelvic surgery, most of them will have adhesion problems.

4. Infection caused by abortion

Abortion can cause inflammation of a woman's reproductive organs and may also leave scar tissue in the fallopian tubes, thereby blocking or damaging the inside of the fallopian tubes.
