With the development of society, infertility has become an increasingly prevalent disease, which is closely related to environmental pollution and the current situation of late marriage and childbirth. For many people, if they cannot decide to have children early on in their youth, the probability of natural childbirth will be doubled when they finally get older. Moreover, the symptoms of infertility are quite diverse, in addition to common diseases such as polycystic uterus, there is also a disease of hydrosalpinx. So will hydrosalpinx affect pregnancy? Can hydrosalpinx self heal?

1、 Etiology of hydrosalpinx

The disease of hydrosalpinx is related to unclean sexual activity. If there is excessive sexual activity or sexual intercourse during menstruation, infection may occur, leading to salpingitis and hydrosalpinx. In this way, the presence of inflammation can lead to water accumulation in adjacent organs, making the disease more severe. Many women experience accessory infections due to improper miscarriage, postpartum delivery, or after miscarriage or menstruation. However, if the infected area is not treated in a timely manner, the condition can become severe, and leakage and exudates in the fallopian tube cavity will gradually accumulate, leading to hydrosalpinx. If people do not pay attention to living in the same room during menstruation and have unclean and frequent sexual activities, it is possible to cause salpingitis, which cannot be treated in a timely manner, leading to blockage inside the fallopian tubes and the formation of hydrosalpinx. Induced abortion, natural abortion, drug induced abortion, induced abortion, unclean sexual intercourse, pelvic infection, etc. It is a common cause of hydrosalpinx.

2、 Can hydrosalpinx affect pregnancy?

Hydrosalpinx can have two effects on pregnancy: one is the risk of inducing ectopic pregnancy, and the other is the impact on embryo implantation, leading to female infertility. Women with hydrosalpinx should receive treatment before in vitro fertilization embryo transfer. Because hydrosalpinx reduces the pregnancy and implantation rates of in vitro fertilization by 50%, and increases the miscarriage rate by two times. Hydrosalpinx can seriously affect ovulation. When hydrosalpinx occurs, the binding of sperm and eggs is hindered, leading to infertility. If you want to get pregnant, you must cure hydrosalpinx. Only by understanding hydrosalpinx can doctors develop a reasonable treatment plan. Hydrosalpinx is often accompanied by blocked fallopian tubes, which prevent sperm and eggs from meeting, and of course, embryos cannot form. When the fallopian tube is unobstructed, the accumulated water in the fallopian tube flows back into the uterine cavity, constantly washing and interfering with the contact between the embryo and the endometrium. Hydrostatic water in the fallopian tubes is called "sewage", which can cause endometritis and "poison" the embryo, affecting its development, reducing implantation and pregnancy rates, and increasing miscarriage rates.

3、 Can hydrosalpinx self heal

Hydrosalpinx is medically known as hydrosalpinx and generally cannot self heal. If there is a small amount of fluid accumulation in the fallopian tubes, there is no obvious clinical discomfort, and pregnant women do not have fertility requirements, regular observation can be conducted without special treatment. Excessive fluid accumulation in the fallopian tubes can easily cause adhesion and blockage, and in severe cases, it can lead to infertility. If there is no active intervention, fluid accumulation will continue to exist and will not self recover. Surgical treatment can be used, such as separation of fallopian tube adhesions, drainage of hydrosalpinx, etc., to increase women's chances of pregnancy. However, if adhesion and water accumulation occur again, a second operation cannot be carried out. Assisted reproductive technology can also be used to relax the interface between the fallopian tube and the uterus, allowing water to flow back into the uterine cavity, but it will reduce the success rate of in vitro fertilization. Hydrosalpinx cannot be discharged by itself. For women who want to have children, only through reasonable treatment plans and effective medical surgery can they cure the disease and achieve the goal of successful pregnancy.

Although this is the case, if you have already developed hydrosalpinx, it is recommended to conduct a certain degree of examination for the effect of hydrosalpinx as soon as possible. If it has already affected your normal fertility, you should seek treatment as soon as possible to avoid missing the window of treatment. Because the longer the time is dragged on, the more difficult it is to cure hydrosalpinx, and even more severe blockage or even ectopic pregnancy may occur!
