In this video, Dr Jay Mehta is going to explain about different types of Treatment For blocked Fallopian Tubes
In our previous video, we learnt what are the causes of Blocked fallopian tube. Investigating patency of fallopian tubes is one important investigation in infertility. There is a difference between open fallopian tubes and functional fallopian tubes.
Causes of Blocked Fallopian Tubes
The fallopian blockage which is spasmodic or due to anxiety are easiest to treat. Apart from this, there are various other causes of the blocked fallopian tube. The causes which are extremely difficult to treat are the causes due to infections because predominately they cause mid-tubal or distal tubal blockages.
Treatment for Blocked Fallopian Tubes
There are various modalities which are available for the treatment of blocked fallopian tubes.
Non-surgical Treatment for Blocked Fallopian Tubes
Generally, a couple will prefer a non-surgical approach for opening fallopian tubes. The most common non-surgical approach which is available is a course of genital antibiotics along with antispasmodic which can be prescribed approximately for 14 days. Following this, a repeat test of the fallopian tube is done and if it is a spasmodic cause or very mild infective cause than the fallopian tube would open on this.
Ayurveda for Blocked Fallopian Tubes
Uttar Basti
Prior to opting for surgical treatment, many couples would experiment with alternative medications such as "Uttar Basti" which is an ayurvedic treatment for blocked fallopian tubes. It is important to remember the person who makes decoction and the person who does Uttar Basti is extremely important. When Uttar Basti is done by a trained ayurvedic physician, the results in opening fallopian tubes especially the blockages even infective blockages including mid-tubal blockages, are excellent.
However, have a word of caution and thorough counselling before undergoing this procedure and this procedure needs to be done by a trained physician.
Surgical Treatment for Blocked fallopian Tubes
When these two modalities fail couples tend to go for surgical treatment. One must know in order to attain pregnancy, fallopian tubes should be functional. It is important that a fallopian tube is functional only than opening it up will be beneficial.
When the fallopian tube is dilated with water collection inside which is known as hydrosalpinges which indicates fallopian tubes are non-functional.
If there is distal tubal block which is a block near fibrial ends, cannot be corrected easily following any form of laparoscopic surgery. Laparoscopic surgery will work best for proximal or cornual tubal blocks. It's important for couples to know whenever surgery is being attempted for block fallopian tube, it does not guarantee the permanent opening of fallopian tube nor does it guarantee successful pregnancy outcome. It is recommended that the patient has a detail discussion with their doctor prior to undergoing any form of treatment for a blocked fallopian tube. When the fallopian tube blockage is untreatable the couple will have to opt for assisted reproductive treatment like IVF or ICSI.
