What to do if fallopian tubes are blocked and you want to have a second child

The mother wants to have a second child but the fallopian tube is blocked, and the father is very anxious. So what causes the fallopian tube to be blocked? What should women do if the fallopian tube is blocked? How to prevent the fallopian tube from being blocked? The following editor will give you a detailed introduction.

Causes of Fallopian Tube Blockage

Gynecological inflammation

Chronic pelvic inflammatory disease can lead to partial or complete closure of the end of the fallopian tube that receives the egg, or adhesion of the inner mucosa of the fallopian tube, causing the lumen to narrow or close. If it is a serious inflammation, the fallopian tube can lose its soft and peristaltic physiological properties, become stiff and twisted, and the lumen is completely blocked, eventually causing it to lose its fertility. Salpingitis can cause adhesions in the narrowest part and the fimbria of the fallopian tube, causing the lumen to narrow or completely close, resulting in infertility.

Perforated appendix

Women with a history of appendix perforation have an increased chance of having their fallopian tubes damaged. This is because the distance between the appendix and the fallopian tube is very close, so the infection at the appendix can easily spread to the fallopian tube, causing inflammation of the fallopian tube, and eventually adhesion and blockage, leading to infertility.

Pelvic Adhesions

This condition usually covers the ovaries and the ends of the fallopian tubes, or it can cause adhesions between the fallopian tubes and other tissues. Especially in women who have had pelvic surgery, most adhesions will occur.

Infections caused by abortion

Miscarriage can also lead to inflammation of the reproductive organs, which may leave scar tissue in the fallopian tubes, thereby blocking or damaging the inside of the tubes.

What to do if the fallopian tube is blocked

Blockage of the fallopian tube in the interstitial and isthmic parts of the fallopian tube: The first choice should be tubal interventional recanalization via X-ray. If the recanalization fails, in vitro fertilization treatment should be performed.

Blockage of the ampulla of the fallopian tube: IVF treatment.

Blockage of the fallopian tube fimbria: One is to perform laparoscopic fallopian tube fimbria ostomy or open fallopian tube fimbria ostomy, and the other is to do in vitro fertilization, with a success rate of 20% each.

Adhesions around the fallopian tube: It can cause dysfunction of the fallopian tube in picking up and transporting eggs, thus causing infertility. The main treatment method is laparoscopic separation of adhesions around the fallopian tube.

Tubal tuberculosis: Tubal recanalization treatment is prohibited for fallopian tube blockage caused by it. If the endometrium is still good, in vitro fertilization treatment can be performed.

Fallopian tube perfusion: It can be performed 3 days after the menstruation is over. Dissolve 160,000 units of gentamicin, 2 ml of procaine, 5 mg of dexamethasone, and 5 mg of α-chymotrypsin in 20 ml of normal saline and inject into the uterine cavity through the fallopian tube perfusion catheter. Once every other day, stop the treatment before ovulation. It can be treated continuously for 2 to 3 menstrual cycles. This treatment is still used by most medical institutions, but the efficacy is poor and the false positive rate is high.

Conventional surgical treatment: For those who are ineffective with conservative treatment, salpingostomy, adhesion separation, tubal anastomosis, uterine fallopian tube implantation, etc. Conventional surgery has large incisions and slow recovery after surgery.

How to prevent fallopian tube blockage

Female friends should pay attention to their personal hygiene, especially the hygiene of the vulva. Do not share basins, towels and other sanitary products with others to prevent cross infection.

When having sex, you should pay attention to the hygiene of your sex life, not only your own personal hygiene, but also the hygiene of your sexual partner. When having sex, both parties must clean their external reproductive organs. Unclean sex can cause bacteria to enter the vagina and cause infection. If a woman has symptoms of vaginal bleeding, she should refrain from having sex.

If a woman suffers from diseases such as adnexitis, she must actively seek treatment until she recovers completely to prevent the disease from turning into a chronic inflammation.

During uterine surgery, strict disinfection is required to prevent bacteria from entering the uterus and causing infection. For example: artificial abortion, childbirth, etc.

Women should pay attention to their physical health, consume adequate fiber and trace elements every day, strengthen nutrition after abortion and delivery, and do some appropriate exercise to enhance body resistance and immunity, which can reduce the chance of illness.

How to treat blocked fallopian tubes

Fallopian tube obstruction is an important factor causing female infertility, because the fallopian tube is relatively thin, and the discharge of follicles needs to pass through the fallopian tube. If the fallopian tube is blocked due to some reasons, it is difficult for the follicle to pass through the fallopian tube, and it is also difficult for the sperm to pass through the fallopian tube and combine with the egg, so it will directly cause infertility. So how to regulate fallopian tube obstruction?

1. Pay attention to maintenance

Patients with fallopian tube obstruction are generally weak and should avoid catching cold in their daily lives, especially the lower limbs and waist and abdomen, which will aggravate the condition. They should try to rest in bed during the treatment process.

2. Maintain an optimistic attitude

Modern women are under great pressure, which can easily lead to gynecological diseases. If patients with blocked fallopian tubes still maintain negative emotions and high stress, it will not be conducive to the treatment of the disease, but will aggravate the condition. Therefore, it is necessary to relieve stress and maintain an optimistic attitude. ...
