Blocked Fallopian Tubes Treatment in Punjab, Bathinda
Blocked Fallopian Tube Treatment in Punjab – Restore Your Path to Parenthood
Blocked fallopian tubes are one of the most common causes of female infertility, preventing the egg from meeting the sperm for fertilization. At Gem Hospital & IVF Centre, we specialize in diagnosing and treating blocked fallopian tubes using advanced technology and fertility expertise—helping women move one step closer to motherhood.
What Are Blocked Fallopian Tubes?
Fallopian tubes are vital reproductive organs that connect the ovaries to the uterus. When one or both tubes are blocked or damaged, the egg cannot reach the uterus, making natural conception difficult or impossible. In many cases, women are unaware of the blockage until they experience difficulty in conceiving.
Common Causes of Blocked Fallopian Tubes
Several medical conditions or past experiences can lead to tubal blockages:
-
Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID)
Infections caused by sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) or untreated gynecological infections can cause inflammation, scarring, and tubal damage. -
Endometriosis
The abnormal growth of uterine-like tissue outside the uterus can lead to scarring and blockages in the tubes. -
Previous Abdominal or Pelvic Surgery
Surgeries like C-sections, appendectomies, or ovarian cyst removal may result in adhesions or scar tissue that obstruct the tubes. -
Ectopic Pregnancy
A previous pregnancy outside the uterus, especially in the fallopian tube, can damage or block the tube. -
Congenital Defects
Some women are born with abnormally shaped or blocked fallopian tubes.
Symptoms of Blocked Fallopian Tubes
Blocked tubes often show no symptoms, making it hard to detect without medical evaluation. However, some women may experience:
-
Difficulty getting pregnant despite regular unprotected sex
-
Pain in the lower abdomen or pelvis
-
Discomfort during periods or intercourse
-
Irregular menstrual cycles
How Are Blocked Fallopian Tubes Diagnosed?
At Gem Hospital & IVF Centre, we use modern diagnostic tools to assess tubal health:
-
Hysterosalpingography (HSG)
A special X-ray test using contrast dye to check for blockages in the fallopian tubes. -
Laparoscopy
A minimally invasive surgical procedure that allows direct visualization and potential treatment of blockages. -
Sonohysterogram (Saline Infusion Sonography)
A high-resolution ultrasound combined with saline to evaluate the uterus and fallopian tubes.
Treatment Options for Blocked Fallopian Tubes at Gem Hospital & IVF Centre
Based on your diagnosis, our fertility specialists will recommend the most suitable treatment:
Tubal Surgery (Tuboplasty)
If the blockage is mild and located near the end of the tube, laparoscopic surgery can help remove the obstruction and restore function. Success depends on the extent of the damage, patient’s age, and overall reproductive health.
IVF (In Vitro Fertilization)
For women with severely blocked fallopian tubes, IVF is the most effective treatment. It bypasses the tubes by fertilizing eggs in a lab and transferring the embryo directly into the uterus, offering high success rates and a strong chance of pregnancy.
Fertility Medications
Fertility medications are often used alongside IVF or ovulation induction to stimulate the ovaries and help produce multiple eggs. This increases the chances of successful fertilization and improves the likelihood of conception.
Alternative Fertility Options
If surgery or IVF is not a suitable option, alternative fertility treatments such as donor eggs or sperm and surrogacy can be considered. These options provide hopeful pathways to parenthood, and our specialists will guide you through every step with care and clarity.
