Blockages in fallopian tubes can be diagnosed through sonosalpingography HSG or hysterolaparoscopy. While its management depends on a number of factors like extent of blockage, associated pathologies, presence of hydrosalpinx (accumulation of serous or clear fluid), patient’s age and other factors affecting fertility.

In young patients without any other issues, tubal recanalization can be done laparoscopically. However, there is a possibility that the tubes can get blocked again. In all other patients, IVF/ICSI should be considered.

Tubal blockage can be kept at bay with proper genital health, menstrual hygiene and safe sexual practice. With regular medication and a healthy diet, 60 out of 100 women get pregnant after IVF treatment in tubal blockage.
