In recent years, the number of female infertility patients caused by fallopian tubes has increased year by year, causing trouble to many women and families. In particular, chronic inflammation is the most difficult to treat.
What are the causes of chronic salpingitis?
1. Due to the upward spread of inflammation in the lower reproductive tract, such as chronic cervicitis, endometritis, Parametritis, etc., cause inflammatory changes in the fallopian tubes. Chronic inflammatory changes may occur due to the weak virulence of the pathogenic microorganisms, the body\’s certain resistance, or inappropriate and incomplete treatment.
2. Acute salpingitis turns into chronic inflammation without treatment or incomplete treatment.
Due to the continuous development of modern medical technology, many antibiotics have been used to treat fallopian tube inflammation. Therefore, they usually have a better curative effect in the acute phase when it is easier to treat. Therefore, clinically, acute cases turn into chronic ones. Female infertility caused by inflammation has also been greatly reduced, but salpingitis caused by tuberculosis infection is showing an increasing trend.
Female friends must pay attention to the patency of their fallopian tubes. Once inflammation occurs in the channel that transports sperm and eggs, it will lead to infertility. Female friends should pay special attention to it.
Simple fallopian tube inflammation is very rare and is often infected together with other tissues. Some chronic inflammation of the fallopian tube has symptoms, and some clinical symptoms are not obvious, but sometimes you will feel lower abdominal discomfort. Diagnosis is difficult.
What are the symptoms of chronic salpingitis?
1. Dysmenorrhea: Blood stasis dysmenorrhea is caused by pelvic congestion. Most of the time, abdominal pain begins one week before menstruation, and becomes more severe as the period approaches, until menstruation begins.
2. Irregular menstruation: The fallopian tube is located adjacent to the ovary. Diseases of the fallopian tube generally do not affect the function of the ovary. If inflammation spreads to the ovary and damages ovarian function, abnormal menstruation will occur. Frequent menstruation and heavy menstrual flow are the most common symptoms. Chronic inflammation leading to uterine fibrosis, uterine incomplete involution or endometriosis caused by adhesions can all cause menorrhagia.
3. Infertility: The fallopian tube itself is damaged and blocked, causing infertility. Secondary infertility is more common.
4. Abdominal pain: There are varying degrees of pain in the lower abdomen, mostly hidden discomfort, soreness, swelling, and sinking sensation in the lower back and sacrum, often due to exertion.Tired and aggravated. Due to pelvic adhesions, there may be pain during filling or emptying of the bladder or rectum, or other symptoms of bladder and rectal irritation, such as frequent urination, tenesmus, etc.
5. Others: such as pain during sexual intercourse, increased leucorrhea, gastrointestinal disorders, fatigue, affected or intolerable labor, mental and neurological symptoms and mental depression, etc.
The patency of the fallopian tube is extremely important for female fertility, so it should be paid enough attention to.
