Hi, welocome to HCM
Follopian tube is part which carry ovum from ovary to uterus . It has two ends one at ovary, away from uterus and other near uterus.
Right tube visualised means there is blockage at ovarian end, so that contrast i.e. medicine doesnot come out. We can not do much for this.
Left tube not visualised means there is block at uterne end, we can open it by Follopian tube recanalization(FTR). it is a simple procedure like HSG.
Irregular contour of uterus may be due to either infection or u still have period.
anything elso , please let me knoe.
THanking you
