Professional doctors have talked a lot about fallopian tube problems. Here are the excerpts: Personal estimates suggest that currently, couples with infertility problems in China account for 1/6 of the total number of couples of childbearing age, and about 1/3 of them suffer from fallopian tube problems. The main causes of fallopian tube obstruction are: pelvic inflammatory disease, surgery and endometriosis. Specific causes of obstruction include: adhesions, spasms, nodules, polyps in the fallopian tubes, endometriosis in the fallopian tubes, and damage to the mucosa in the fallopian tubes. According to the location of obstruction, it can be divided into proximal and distal ends (mainly referring to the fimbria).
Treatments for blocked fallopian tubes include:
◎ Drainage – clearing the tube lumen;
◎ Traditional Chinese medicine and physical therapy – —Promote local blood supply and relieve spasms;
◎ Laparoscopic surgery—release of adhesions, fimbriae stoma, removal of ectopic endometrium, etc.;
◎ Fallopian tube endoscopy Intubation – to remove polyps and debris and to clear the lumen of the tube.
Among the above methods, water flow, traditional Chinese medicine and physical therapy (microwave, salt application, etc.) are easy to treat, do not have many side effects, and can be done in ordinary hospitals; laparoscopy and fallopian tube intubation require equipment and doctors. There are certain requirements for experience, and the re-obstruction rate is 30% one year after surgery.
As for the efficacy that everyone is concerned about, it depends on each person’s specific situation. If it is proximal obstruction, the effective rate is estimated to be 50% through drainage or surgery; if it is distal obstruction, according to literature statistics, the effective rate is about 25%. At the same time, the ectopic pregnancy rate is 5%. ; If the shape of the fimbria mucosa is poor, the effectiveness will be even lower (if any hospital advertisement dares to say that it is guaranteed to cure fallopian tube obstruction, it can be blacklisted, so don’t believe it anymore).
Doctors often hesitate when faced with various treatment options. Generally speaking, I think the factors that influence a doctor\’s decision-making include: the specific situation of the patient, the hospital\’s ability to implement various technical methods, the doctor\’s own preferences, and the patient\’s requirements. If the doctor feels that the patient\’s fallopian tube condition is not bad, he is still young, and his ovarian reserve is strong, he or she will generally recommend using various methods to treat the fallopian tube first. If you are confident, then you will be advised to prepare for IVF.
If IVF fails, it does not mean that there is no hope, and other treatments can still be used.
One more thing: When there is inflammation, water must not be passed through, as it will cause the inflammation to spread and worsen. Some sisters said that this is what causes hydrosalpinx.
