What are the symptoms of fallopian tube obstruction?

Blocked fallopian tubes are a common cause of infertility in women after marriage, so infertility is the most common symptom of this disease. In addition, patients may also experience symptoms such as irregular menstruation, abdominal discomfort with dull pain, and dysmenorrhea. If you are still infertile after marriage and have these symptoms, you must go to a regular hospital for examination and treatment in time.

1. Symptoms of Fallopian Tube Obstruction

1. Infertility

The fallopian tube itself can be damaged by lesions, resulting in blockage, which can lead to infertility, with secondary infertility being the most common.

2. Irregular menstruation

The fallopian tubes and ovaries are adjacent to each other. Generally, diseases of the fallopian tubes do not affect the function of the ovaries, and have no effect on the amount of menstrual flow. However, menstrual abnormalities will only occur when the inflammation spreads to the ovaries and damages the ovarian function.

3. Abdominal discomfort

The patient will experience varying degrees of pain in the lower abdomen, most of which are hidden discomfort. The lower back, back and sacrum will experience soreness, swelling and a feeling of heaviness, which is often aggravated by fatigue. Due to pelvic adhesions, there may be bladder and rectal filling pain or pain when emptying, or other symptoms of bladder and rectal irritation, such as frequent urination and tenesmus.

4. Dysmenorrhea

Dysmenorrhea caused by pelvic congestion usually begins with abdominal pain one week before menstruation, which becomes more severe as the menstrual period approaches, until the onset of menstruation.

5. Others

Such as increased vaginal discharge, painful sexual intercourse, gastrointestinal disorders, labor disturbance or intolerance to long-term labor, neurological symptoms and depression, etc.

Treatment of patients with fallopian tube obstruction

1. X-ray hysterosalpingography: It can clearly understand the overall patency of the fallopian tubes and the specific location and nature of the blockage.

2. X-ray interventional tubal recanalization and selective salpingography and recanalization: It can not only identify the specific location and nature of the fallopian tube blockage, but also perform recanalization while accurately understanding the location of the fallopian tube blockage.

3. Selective fallopian tube catheterization and recanalization by X-ray

4. Laparoscopic examination and treatment of fallopian tube patency: Due to the high requirements of endoscopic surgery on instruments, laparoscopy is still a invasive surgery.

5. Hysteroscopy and laparoscopy are used together to check whether the fallopian tubes are unobstructed and to treat fallopian tube obstruction.

6. Drug treatment for fallopian tube obstruction: Patients should carefully choose the treatment method for the disease, and not blindly seek treatment, otherwise it will only cause further trauma to the fallopian tubes.
