  Any blockage in the fallopian tubes doesn’t allow sperm to meet the egg. This abnormality or defects occur in 20–25% of cases of infertility. In some cases, there is a complete blockage, while in some cases, the blockage is found only in one tube.

  Reasons of fallopian tubes blockage

  Fallopian tubes may get blocked due to abdominal surgery, some infections, surgeries, and some diseases like endometriosis, tuberculosis, sexually transmitted diseases, etc., also cause such a situation. In STDs, gonorrhea and chlamydia are mostly responsible for tubular infertility. Another cause is a pelvic inflammatory disease, which can permanently scar the inner lining of the fallopian tubes.

  Symptoms of tubular infertility

  This condition doesn’t show prominent symptoms. In fact, it is an asymptomatic type of tubular blockage. So, often patients don’t understand on their own until they get in touch with a gynecologist for the treatment of infertility. But in extreme cases, chronic pelvic pain can be felt by the patient.

  Role of fallopian tubes

  A pair of fallopian tubes play a major role in conception. A mature egg from the ovary goes towards the fallopian tubes. Through the cervix, sperm enters and fertilizes the existing egg. Now the embryo or fertilized egg travels towards the uterus from the fallopian tubes for its implantation finally. 

  Thus, any blockage in the fallopian tubes can make fertilization difficult. It becomes impossible for a sperm to reach a mature egg, or a fertilized egg can’t go back to the uterus for a further implant.

  Test for the blockage of the fallopian tube

  A fertility specialist can recommend the following tests or procedures to confirm the blockage in the fallopian tubes:

  • A Hysterosalpingogram or HSG is a sort of x-ray which is done by the radiologist to detect abnormalities in fallopian tubes.
  • Laparoscopy is a minimally invasive procedure that is used by a surgeon to investigate the fallopian tube's blockage or any scarring inside the tubes.

   

  Treatment of blocked fallopian tubes

  Damaged, blocked, or scarred fallopian tubes may cause infertility. So the treatment options are surgery or IVF (in vitro fertilization).

  • IVF, or in vitro fertilization, is a cutting-edge treatment that gives such couples hope of becoming parents. Where the whole process of fertilization takes place outside the female fallopian tubes and the fertilized egg is implanted directly into the uterus.
  • Surgery is another option for such patients, but it may lead to other issues like ectopic pregnancy.
