summary

My husband and I have been married for three years, and we have no contraception, but we have no children. When we went to the hospital for examination, the doctor said that we found unilateral tubal blockage. After finding out this problem, the doctor gave me timely treatment. Now my condition is getting better. Today, let me share with you whether B-ultrasound can see tubal blockage.

Can B-ultrasound show tubal obstruction

First: before the examination, the patient should empty the urine, especially the bladder, so that the uterus is in a normal position; the patient lies on the examination table, and the vagina is routinely disinfected. Insert a small caliber sterile medical tube into the uterine cavity of the examinee, and inject 20ml of liquid medicine (normal saline plus gentamicin, which should be configured by a professional doctor) through the orifice. The liquid medicine flows through the fallopian tube from the uterine cavity and finally reaches the pelvic cavity.

Second: the uterine cavity can only hold 5ml liquid, which is often used to judge the results. If all 20ml solution can be smoothly pushed in without resistance, and there is no liquid flowing back to the syringe after loosening the syringe, indicating that the solution has flowed into the abdominal cavity through the uterus and fallopian tube, it indicates that the fallopian tube is unobstructed; if the resistance is great, and more than 10ml solution flows back into the syringe after loosening the syringe, it indicates that the fallopian tube is blocked

Third: if there is resistance when pushing in, but most of the liquid medicine can be injected, and there is only a small amount of backflow after loosening the needle tube, it indicates that the fallopian tube is unobstructed.

matters needing attention

Pelvic infection or genital tract infection can cause tubal endometritis, resulting in tubal obstruction. To change the bad way of life, the increase of night life, uncontrolled sex life, multiple sexual partners, etc. will make the body's resistance decline, cause genital tract infection, and then cause tubal inflammation.
