What causes blocked fallopian tubes?

Congenital dysplasia of the fallopian tubes, congenital lesions of the fallopian tubes, slender twists, or dysfunction of the fallopian tubes can cause tubal obstruction.

Inflammation of the fallopian tubes, which is the most common cause of blocked fallopian tubes. In particular, many women have experienced postoperative infection caused by improper abortion, medical abortion, or the impact of childbirth, and many women may have the influence of inflammation, ascending infection to the pelvis and fallopian tubes, causing adhesion of the fallopian tube wall and inducing fallopian tube blockage.

Endometriosis, a woman suffering from endometriosis will change the environment in the pelvis, so that the uterus will go out for a long time in chronic inflammation, and the inflammation for a long time can cause tubal adhesion or fallopian tube obstruction.

**Tumors, such as chocolate cysts or adenomyosis, can also cause blockages in the fallopian tubes by directly compressing the fallopian tubes in the form of a protruding tumor, causing them to adhere to the surrounding tissues.

Tips: In order to facilitate patients and those in need to better understand the relevant information of the disease, Linyi Infertility Hospital has specially opened a free ** doctor consultation service to answer your questions about the disease and keep your privacy confidential.

In infertility, many factors are related to tubal factors, especially secondary infertility. Primary infertility is usually the husband and wife who have lived together for 2 years and have a normal sex life, but are not pregnant. Secondary infertility is a situation in which both husband and wife have been pregnant and have a normal pregnancy history, but then they cannot get pregnant again.

A large part of the cause of such infertility is caused by the fallopian tubes, which are caused by blocked fallopian tubes. Fallopian tube blockage is mainly caused by inflammation of the genital tract, especially mycoplasma infection, which can lead to fallopian tube blockage, as well as gonorrhea and other miscellaneous bacterial infections, which cause pelvic inflammation, which may lead to fallopian tube blockage and cause infertility.

Blocked fallopian tubes are often caused by pelvic inflammation. That is to say, usually do not pay attention to hygiene, menstrual sex, usually long menstrual periods. Or they have usually had surgical operations such as abortion, upper ring removal, etc. Blockage of the fallopian tubes.

Cause; 1.Infection Most fallopian tube disorders are secondary to infection, particularly pelvic inflammatory disease. Other possible causes of infection include perforated appendix, infection after miscarriage, or complications after surgery.

2.Inflammation and adhesion Tissue trauma caused by surgery can also lead to a pre-inflammatory state or even adhesions, and the incidence of postoperative adhesions is about 75%, and laparoscopy cannot prevent the occurrence of adhesion sequelae.

Causes of blocked fallopian tubes include:

1.Inflammation: Acute inflammation can easily cause pelvic inflammatory disease, and patients develop abdominal pain and fever; Chronic inflammation predisposes to occult chronic pelvic inflammatory disease;

2.Endometriosis: Patients have significantly worsening progressive dysmenorrhea, causing infertility and blockage of the fallopian tubes.

While pelvic inflammatory diseases can be caused by a variety of microorganisms, chlamydia is a major contributor to infertility.

There are several types of fallopian tube blockage, Shenyang Kyushu will tell you about it. First, the fallopian tubes are completely blocked, and the lesions are severe. In this case, according to the current level of medical care in our country, it is still difficult to apply surgery** to restore fertility.

The second is that the fallopian tubes are occluded, but the degree of damage is relatively slight. This kind of patient has less damage to the fallopian tubes, and there is still most of the normal and healthy fallopian tube tissue, and through surgery, the damaged part is removed, and the remaining healthy part is used to reconstruct the close to normal fallopian tube, which is very promising to restore fertility. The third is that the fallopian tubes are not open.

The main reason is that there is a slight inflammation and adhesion in the lumen of the fallopian tubes; or the fallopian tubes, although unblocked, are too slender and crooked due to congenital dysplasia; Or because there are adhesions on the outside of the fallopian tubes, and the adhesion fibrous tissue stretches or trips the normal activities of the fallopian tubes like ropes, which will affect the smooth flow of the fallopian tubes.

Main**.

Pathogen infection.

When infected by pathogens, it can damage the epithelial cells and tissues of the fallopian tube mucosa, resulting in inflammatory reactions in patients, which can easily lead to the occurrence of diseases. Pathogens can be divided into endogenous pathogens and exogenous pathogens.

Exogenous pathogens.

Exogenous pathogens include chlamydia, mycoplasma and other pathogens, which can cause adhesions and blockages in the fallopian tube mucosa when infected.

Endogenous pathogens.

Common endogenous pathogens are anaerobic bacteria, aerobic bacteria, and both alleviate infection, which eventually leads to the development of disease.

Surgery. Miscarriage, tubal patency surgery, appendix surgery, etc., can damage the fallopian tube mucosa and cause blockage.

Other**. If there is congenital abnormal development of the fallopian tubes, lesions, polyps, etc., it will also cause the patient to have fallopian tube blockage.

There are two main reasons for fallopian tube blockage, the first is due to infection, the acute infection phase is not well controlled, and then it turns into chronic pelvic inflammation, which is common in poor life or the patient has had medical abortion and other surgeries, and the second reason is seen in mechanical reasons, mainly seen in sisters who have had pelvic and abdominal surgery.

Fallopian tube blockage is a common cause of infertility, usually due to a woman who has had a serious ** infectious disease before, such as severe pelvic inflammatory disease or pelvic tuberculosis, resulting in blockage, adhesion, and fixation of the fallopian tube. If there is a problem of blocked fallopian tubes, you can consider doing salpingography to clarify the location and degree of the blockage, whether it is unobstructed or completely blocked, and then choose the best method according to the specific situation.

There are many reasons for the specific causes of blocked fallopian tubes. For example, inflammation or fallopian tube malformations are possible. I suggest you can go to the hospital and do a salpingogram to have a look.

Generally, the fallopian tubes are inflamed and the fallopian tubes are adhesed, which can lead to impassability. There are also congenital fallopian tube malformations that cause impassability.
