Does fallopian tube removal have a big impact on the ovaries?

A woman's fallopian tubes may develop many diseases, the most common of which is fallopian tube inflammation. In addition, there may be fallopian tube blockage, hydrosalpinx, and fallopian tube adhesions, etc. These fallopian tube diseases will seriously affect the function of the fallopian tubes. In serious cases, the patient needs to have the fallopian tubes removed. Fallopian tube removal will directly affect a woman's pregnancy, so how much impact will this have on the ovaries?

Does fallopian tube removal have a big impact on the ovaries?

If a woman has a tubal recanalization surgery after having a ligation, she generally needs to wait at least three months before considering pregnancy. It should not be too early.

It is recommended to go to a professional and regular gynecological hospital for treatment and examination. If you want to have a ligation and fallopian tube recanalization, you must have a certificate from the family planning department before you can do it. If a woman is sterilized for a long time, it may have a certain impact on her future pregnancy.

When women develop certain fallopian tube diseases, salpingectomy is often performed clinically for treatment. However, will fallopian tube removal affect ovarian function? Experts say: Salpingectomy certainly does not affect the volume of the ovaries in the short term, but it does reduce the reserve function of the ipsilateral ovary. Experts point out that the fallopian tube is an important internal reproductive organ of women. Therefore, if the fallopian tube is diseased or has congenital malformations, it can directly affect women's conception and lead to infertility. However, for the treatment of female infertility caused by fallopian tube factors, salpingectomy is generally not used clinically. For severe lesions such as hydrosalpinx and fallopian tube adhesions, salpingectomy is still required, and sometimes bilateral salpingectomy is also required.

In addition, the fallopian tube is a necessary condition for conception. When both sides of a woman's fallopian tubes are removed, she will definitely not be able to conceive naturally. However, some women have to remove one fallopian tube due to ectopic pregnancy or other serious fallopian tube diseases. As long as the other fallopian tube is normal, there is still a chance of pregnancy. But compared with healthy bilateral fallopian tubes, the chance will be lower. Although retaining one fallopian tube still reduces the possibility of pregnancy, even if pregnancy occurs, ectopic pregnancy is very likely to occur. At present, there are different opinions on salpingectomy for tubal pregnancy and hydrosalpinx. Of course, the operation will not affect the ovarian volume in the short term, but it will reduce the reserve function of the ipsilateral ovary. The operation may affect the blood supply to the ovary and the superovulation effect. Therefore, in clinical practice, for patients with tubal pregnancy who wish to have children, the affected fallopian tube should be preserved as much as possible to avoid affecting future fertility.
