What Are Blocked Fallopian Tubes?
Fallopian tubes play a critical role in the reproduction system of a woman. They act as the route through which the egg goes from the ovaries to the uterus. In case of the blockage of one or both tubes, the egg and sperm cannot unite, which causes fertility issues. Blocked Fallopian Tubes are a significant cause of infertility in women yet in many cases, they may not be realised until a woman attempts to conceive. Awareness of the causes, early signs and prompt treatment may significantly enhance the natural or assisted conception.
What are the Causes of Blocked Fallopian Tubes?
Fallopian tubes may be blocked or scarred by a number of factors. The usual causes include pelvic infections, endometriosis, and prior surgeries, in particular, abdominal or pelvic surgeries. Transmission of sexually transmitted diseases like chlamydia and gonorrhoea may lead to inflammation and scarring which blocks the tubes. In other instances, ectopic pregnancies or fibroids that have been present before and are in or around the tubes may hamper the normal functioning of the tubes. The obstructions may arise at varying locations along the tube – near the uterus, in the middle, or near the ovaries – and where the obstruction occurs normally directs the most effective way of treatment.

Key Symptoms of Blocked Fallopian Tubes
Quite a number of women who have blocked tubes may not even show any symptoms and thus the condition is uncovered during fertility testing. Nevertheless, there are Blocked Fallopian Tubes Symptoms that can warn you about the issue: constant pain in the pelvic area, in particular, during vaginal discharge is abnormal; pain during intercourse. Women with a history of several pelvic infections or ectopic pregnancy must be especially careful and visit a gynaecologist to receive a fertility check-up. In other instances, there might be a minor abdominal bloat or pains due to fluid accumulation (hydrosalpinx) in the tube that is blocked.
Ayurvedic Treatment for Blocked Fallopian Tubes
The approach to Blocked Fallopian Tubes Treatment depends on the severity and location of the blockage. In case of minor obstructions or adhesions, laparoscopy surgery is able to excise scar tissue and re-establish normal tube functioning. In case the obstruction is severe, assisted reproductive technologies can be recommended, e.g., in vitro fertilisation (IVF). IVF does not require the tubes and so it fertilises the egg outside the body and the embryo is inserted directly into the uterus.
Preventive care and lifestyle are also important. Safe intimacy, immediate treatment of pelvic infections, and a healthy reproductive system can help in minimising the chances of occurrence of blocked tubes. Read More : What are the Symptoms of Blocked Fallopian Tubes?
