Dear Devanshi,

I have gone through your history.

It is not that the egg released from one ovary is always picked up by the to be of that side only. The other tube also can pick up that egg. However, the chances of pick up by the same side tube are more.

If the tube is blocked by some flimsy tissue, hydrotubation may break the flimsy tissue and the tube may get opened. However, it cannot be guaranteed. If hydrotubation cannot open the tube, then tubal reconstructive microsurgery need be done. This is a plastic surgery on the tube which will remove the block in the tube and make it patent.

I hope this explains you the situation to your satisfaction.
