If you've been diagnosed with blocked fallopian tubes, and you'd like answers, please keep reading. I'm going to share with you some information that could help you get pregnant quickly.
Your fallopian tubes are two minute tubes that link the ovaries to the uterus, and are also named uterine tubes, salpinges or oviducts. The fallopian tubes are approximately 7 to 14 cm in length, and start at the upper part of the uterus and move outwards to form a structure called the fimbria. The fimbria are finger-like projections that lie close to the ovaries, and they are responsible for taking the mature egg once its been released by the ovary.
The fallopian tubes consist of strong muscle tissue, covered by ciliated cells. Ciliated cells are cells that have microscopic hair-like projections that push objects towards the uterus. The ciliated cells are protected with a thin mucus to keep the fallopian tubes soft and pliable, and to sustain optimal survival conditions for sperm and eggs.
Fallopian tubes can become blocked because of inflammation, infections, liquids, or scarring and adhesions.
There is a condition that affects the fallopian tubes called Salpingitis. Salpingitis is occurs when an infectious agent causes the tubes to swell and inflame. Most commonly, the reason why the tubes are affected is PID (Pelvic Inflammatory Disease. Salpingitis can result in the walls of the fallopian tubes sticking together, which causes blocked fallopian tubes. Salpingitis can cause painful ovulation, painful menstruation, pain during sexual intercourse, and a change in the color or smell of vaginal discharge.
Hydrosalpinx can also cause blocked fallopian tubes. Hydrosalpinges occur when the fallopian tube is filled with a clear fluid. You are already aware that the fallopian tubes secrete a liquid to moisten these delicate tissues. In a healthy woman, this liquid runs from the fimbria- the part of the fallopian tubes nearest to the ovaries, down into the uterus. The primary reason women develop a hydrosalpinx is pelvic inflammatory disease, but it is also the result of foreign bacteria overgrowth, endometriosis, or even damage from previous surgeries. Most women with a hydrosalpinx don't know they have one because they're not experiencing any symptoms or side effects, so it can go untreated.
Conditions similar to a hydrosalpinx include: Pyosalpinx - this is when a fallopian tube is filled with pus and starts to expand from within, and Hematosalpinx - This the state of the fallopian tube when it is filled with blood and causes the tubes to become distended.
Additionally, blocked fallopian tubes are caused by an adhesion. This is when tissues are abnormally connected by bands of fibrous tissue, as a result of injury, surgery, endometriosis or scarring after inflammation. When adhesions grow in or around the fallopian tubes, they can result in the fallopian tubes becoming twisted, or the lining of the fallopian tubes becoming stuck together.
The good news is, blocked fallopian tubes don't permanently stop you from being fertile, thanks to medical technology. While medicine and surgery work for numerous couples, there are risks relating to these surgeries. The world of alternative medicine offers a solution, which in many cases works better than surgery.
