Is fallopian tube blockage surgery painful?

When a patient has fallopian tube blockage, this disease will affect the patient's normal reproductive function, because it will prevent the female's eggs from being discharged from the ovaries, so that the woman cannot get pregnant. Therefore, if you want to get pregnant quickly, you can only use the method of fallopian tube dredging. Not all dredging methods can have a very obvious effect. So is it painful to do fallopian tube blockage surgery?

1. Fallopian tube insufflation and angiography

Fallopian tube insufflation and angiography is not only a means of examination, but also has a therapeutic effect on patients with loose adhesions and mild fallopian tube blockage. After two to three treatments, the fallopian tube can be completely unobstructed.

2. DSA-based fallopian tube interventional recanalization

Under the synchronous monitoring of clear DSA (digital subtraction angiography), a coaxial catheter system is used to perform selective fallopian tube angiography and recanalization. It is mainly suitable for infertile patients with fallopian tube blockage in the interstitial and narrow parts. Selective fallopian tube angiography and recanalization can be performed for blockage of any section of the fallopian tube. The main method used is catheter dilation, which involves inserting a catheter guidewire and utilizing the propulsive, dilating and separating effects of the catheter guidewire and the impact force of the contrast agent to clear the fallopian tube to the fimbria end. Surgical treatment of fallopian tube obstruction is safe and effective, with little pain, no need for hospitalization, and high recanalization rate and postoperative pregnancy rate.

Interventional surgery is performed 3-7 days after the menstruation of patients with fallopian tube obstruction ends. The patient can be discharged from the hospital after lying flat for 1-2 hours for observation. The uterine cavity is insulated once 2-3 days after the operation, and the uterine cavity is insulated 3-7 days after the menstruation ends for three consecutive months to consolidate the therapeutic effect. You can have sexual intercourse during the second menstrual cycle after the interventional surgery to try to get pregnant.

However, for a small number of patients with severe pelvic adhesions and fallopian tube obstruction, although interventional recanalization surgery can barely restore the canalization of the fallopian tube lumen, it cannot resolve the pelvic adhesions, and re-adhesions may occur after the operation.

3. Hysteroscopy and laparoscopy combined surgery

Hysteroscopy and laparoscopy combined with exploratory surgery can treat fallopian tube obstruction, which can not only solve the pelvic adhesions, but also perform fallopian tube clearance under direct vision. However, the patient needs general anesthesia, artificial pneumoperitoneum, and hospitalization for treatment, and the cost of treatment is relatively high.

Patients with fallopian tube obstruction must choose a regular hospital when seeking treatment and select an appropriate surgical method based on their condition. Only in this way can the safety and effectiveness of the treatment be guaranteed.
