Here is everything you want to know about fallopian tube inflammation

Fallopian tube inflammation is one of the common gynecological diseases in women. This disease has a great impact on women's health. If it is not cared for in time, it is likely to cause infertility. Therefore, female friends must pay attention. So what are the specific symptoms of fallopian tube inflammation?

Causes

1. The physiological defense function of the female reproductive tract against infection is weakened during menstruation, after miscarriage or in the postpartum period: If female friends do not pay attention to hygiene during the menstrual cycle or have sexual intercourse, bacteria can easily ascend through the mucous membrane and cause infection of the fallopian tube lining.

2. Disseminated infection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis: Mycobacterium tuberculosis spreads to the fallopian tubes through the blood circulation, thereby causing the occurrence of salpingitis.

3. Gonorrheal infection: This condition is also the main cause of acute salpingo-oophoritis.

4. Lesions in organs adjacent to the fallopian tube: This is also one of the causes of salpingitis. Diseases such as appendicitis and colon diverticulitis can spread to the fallopian tube through direct contact and cause inflammation.

symptom

1. Lower abdominal pain of varying degrees, mostly dull pain, lumbar pain, and a feeling of falling;

2. Abnormal menstruation, manifested by increased menstrual flow and irregular cycles.

3. Dysmenorrhea: Due to pelvic congestion, abdominal pain usually begins a week before menstruation and becomes more severe as the menstrual period approaches until the onset of menstruation.

4. Increased leucorrhea. Some patients may not have any conscious symptoms except infertility.

harm

1. Causes pain: Unlike dysmenorrhea, patients will also feel bloating and pain in the lower abdomen and unbearable back pain during non-menstrual period.

2. Impact on sexual life: This is also the most common symptom of salpingitis. The symptoms often worsen during menstruation or after fatigue. At the same time, there is an abnormal increase in leucorrhea and menstrual volume, and lumbar pain. Some patients will experience pain during intercourse, which seriously affects women's sexual life.

3. Ectopic pregnancy: If the fallopian tube inflammation is too severe, it will cause complete blockage of the lumen and lead to infertility. In mild cases, pregnancy will be affected. In severe cases, ectopic pregnancy will occur because the fertilized egg cannot reach the uterine cavity, endangering the life and health of women.

4. Causes female infertility: Fallopian tube inflammation is the most common factor leading to female infertility. Once the fallopian tube becomes inflamed, it will cause atresia of the fimbria or damage to the fallopian tube mucosa, which will eventually lead to fallopian tube occlusion and female infertility.
