Hello,

Hydrosalpinx is usually due to long standing infection which damages the delicate fimbrial end.It can be corrected by laproscopy surgery .Chances of natural pregnancy is 10-15% only post surgery.
Even if pregnancy occurs naturally it has to be closely followed as there are chances of ectopic pregnancy .As in this case even if other tube is patent hydrosalpinx usually affects both tubes.So there are chances that there may be mild damage in tube of other side also .
But dont loose hope follow your gynec .If pregnancy occurs naturally its ok if not Go for IVF.Succes rate of IVF is good in these type of cases
