Hi
Welcome to healthcaremagic.
I have gone through your question.
As ectopic pregnancy is the major cause for fallopian tube blockage.
So i would advise to go for histosalpingography HSG rather than to rule out blockage. Then if necessary, go for laparoscopy.
Hope i answered your question.
Would be happy to help you further.
Take care.
