What are the symptoms of hydrosalpinx?

When hydrosalpinx occurs, certain symptoms will appear. In the acute phase, patients often experience abdominal pain. If the accumulated water is absorbed by the body, the inflammation will slowly heal. Sometimes it can easily cause dysmenorrhea and irregular menstruation. Of course, the most common is that it can easily lead to infertility in women because the fallopian tubes are blocked and the egg cannot pass through.

Clinical manifestations of hydrosalpinx: patients often have a history of abdominal pain during the acute phase of tubal inflammation. Generally, after the pus in the fallopian tube turns into serous, that is, hydrosalpinx, or the water is absorbed by the body, the inflammation is often cured long ago. Therefore, patients with hydrosalpinx usually do not have abdominal pain symptoms. Because when hydrosalpinx occurs, the lumens of the dilated and non-dilated parts of the fallopian tube are still connected, patients often have intermittent vaginal discharge, and infertility is often the only manifestation of hydrosalpinx. Therefore, female friends who are infertile after marriage should go for a check-up as soon as possible to see if it is caused by problems with the fallopian tubes.

Since hydrosalpinx does not have any clinical symptoms, when it comes to prevention, we can only carry out targeted prevention based on the causes of fallopian tube formation. The prevention of hydrosalpinx mainly focuses on paying attention to sexual life.

Women should pay attention to their own and their sexual partners' personal hygiene when having sex. Before having sex, the external genitalia of both men and women need to be cleaned to prevent the smooth invasion of germs. When women have vaginal bleeding symptoms, they should restrain themselves and abstain from sexual intercourse. Women should pay attention to their vulva hygiene and personal hygiene; be careful to prevent infections from sanitary ware and toilets. Women should pay attention to their own nutritional health, strengthen nutrition during menstruation and after childbirth; enhance their physical fitness, increase resistance and immunity, and reduce the chance of illness.

During delivery, intrauterine contraceptive device removal and insertion, and other intrauterine procedures, strict disinfection should be performed to avoid introducing pathogens into the vagina and uterus through surgery and causing artificial infection. Female patients with acute fallopian tube injury should rest in a semi-recumbent position to prevent and limit the flow of inflammatory fluid due to changes in body position. Eat nutritious, easily digestible foods rich in vitamins. Once a woman suffers from hydrosalpinx, she should abide by the treatment principles, take a positive attitude, and receive thorough treatment to control the condition as soon as possible to prevent it from becoming a chronic disease.
