Tubal factors account for 25-35% of infertility caused by female factors. The incidence of
hydrosalpinx was 10-30%. Hydrosalpinx is mostly caused by tubal inflammation.rnAt present, many studies have confirmed that the function of the fallopian tube is damaged after suffering from hydrosalpinx, which will significantly affect fertility. Even if many couples perform IVF due to other tubal problems, if hydrosalpinx is not treated, it will still affect the success rate of IVF.
Tracy has been married for more than two years and has no children. Her husband's semen test is normal, and her menstruation is regular. She had ovulation monitoring for several months, and the follicles could mature and discharge usually. What's wrong?
The doctor advised her to do salpingography. At first, Tracy was reluctant to do salpingography. Later, she remembered that she would be pregnant when she got married. Because they were not in a hurry to have a child, she went to have a painless abortion. Was there something wrong with the fallopian tube? So she listened to the doctor and went to the hospital on the fifth day after my menstruation was clean.
The radiography results showed that there was fluid in both fallopian tubes. Sure enough, there was something wrong with the fallopian tube. But from the examination results, some contrast media still flowed into the pelvic cavity. Tracy asked the doctor what caused hydrosalpinx? Will it affect pregnancy?
The leading cause of hydrosalpinx is caused by long-term inflammatory stimulation. After inflammatory stimulation, the serous lumen in the fallopian tube is edema, thickening, hyperemia, inflammatory exudation, and effusion. The umbrella end of the fallopian tube is adhered and closed due to inflammation, and the leakage and exudate in the lumen gradually accumulate to form hydrosalpinx.
The formation of ponding may cause lumen stenosis or adhesion. It will cause sperm and egg to meet obstacles, unable to form fertilized eggs, causing infertility. Unilateral hydrosalpinx may be pregnant, while bilateral hydrosalpinx is challenging to conceive.
Even if sperm and eggs can combine in the fallopian tube to form fertilized eggs, the hydrosalpinx will affect the function of the fallopian tube, and the fallopian tube is brutal to transport the fertilized eggs to the uterine cavity usually. Therefore, the probability of ectopic pregnancy is higher than that of ordinary women.
Because hydrosalpinx is caused by inflammatory exudation, it may enter the uterine cavity along the fallopian tube cavity, lead to intrauterine infection, affect the environment of embryo growth, and lead to the cessation of embryo development. Therefore, even if pregnancy has a "toxic" effect on the embryo and endometrium, it will lead to non-implantation or abortion of fertilized eggs.
Generally speaking, check out hydrosalpinx and choose different treatment methods according to the severity of hydrosalpinx. If it is only simple hydrosalpinx, the patient has no apparent symptoms, and there is no requirement for fertility again. You can observe and follow up, regular physical examination is OK, and there is no need for treatment. But if the patient has fertility requirements, hydrosalpinx will lead to infertility, so it has to be treated.
If there is hydrosalpinx, it is one of the leading causes of female infertility. Because the liquid of hydrosalpinx flows into the uterine cavity, it will cause hydrosalpinx, interfere with the contact between embryo and endometrium, and affect embryo implantation because microbial debris and toxic substances directly enter the uterine cavity.
At present, there are many methods to treat hydrosalpinx. Ordinary patients can promote local blood circulation and eliminate inflammation by oral administration of traditional Chinese medicine for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, such as the
Fuyan Pill
. At the same time, together with ultrashort wave ion penetration, it can promote local blood circulation and the elimination of inflammation.
Hydrosalpinx is treated with traditional Chinese medicine for three purposes:
1. Use diuretic drugs to eliminate hydrosalpinx.
2. Apply the treatment method of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis to achieve the purpose of softening, firmness, dispersing nodules, and detumescence.
3. The application of heat-clearing and detoxification drugs can kill all kinds of bacteria and viruses and promote the disappearance of hydrosalpinx.
In different situations, women should take different treatment methods. If the drug treatment is ineffective, stoma, anastomosis, and tubal uterus transplantation can be performed for other parts of tubal obstruction.
As hydrosalpinx is related to inflammation, patients should pay attention to a light diet, avoid raw, cold, spicy, and other stimulating food. Pay attention to personal hygiene in life, keep private places clean and change underwear frequently. And it is strictly prohibited to have sex during menstruation.
