Fallopian tube block?

Question

Whether block in the Fallopian tube is treatable? What are all the different options? After the treatment normally how long does it take to get pregnant assuming everyting else is perfect.

Answer 1

You can still get pregnant with one tube. My friend did and her doctor said her other ovary ovulated. And the other tube picked it up. She had twins.

Good-Luck :)

Answer 2

Blockage of the fallopian tube near the uterine end can be relieved by state of the art procedures where a tube is placed at the beginning of the fallopian tube and dye is injected to pressure out any debris. If this is not successful, a catheter, very much like that used for heart surgery, is threaded into the fallopian tube to release the blockage.The above procedures can be performed either in the x-ray department or in conjunction with laparoscopy and hysteroscopy in the operating room when other information of the female pelvis is needed. When the blockage can not be relieved by cannulation, microsurgery with resection and anastomosis of the tube is required. As far as getting pregnant I would check with a fertility clinic.

Answer 3

Both of my fallopian tubes were blocked due to Endometriosis. I had a procedure called a laproscopy. The doctor was able to partially unblock one. I got pregnant four months after the laproscopy but I am sure everyone is different. I was also charting my temperature. I was told that after the laproscopy I would have about six months before the scar tissue built back up again. Pregnancy also stops the growth of the scar tissue so nine weeks after I gave birth to the first baby I got pregnant again. Both times they had me go in right away to have an ultrasound to make sure the baby was not in the tube. Talk to your doctor. There is still hope, I was very blessed with two beautiful babies.Also you could still be a candidate for in-vitro. Best wishes
