Suggest Treatment For Blocked Fallopian Tube
I recently had an ultrasound and saw liquid in my left tube. I ve been trying to get pregnant for 9 years. Is there a good chance my other tube is also damaged even if not shown in an ultrasound? What options do I have to remove the fluid without taking the whole tube?

Hi, I have gone through your question and understand your concerns. Fluid in one fallopian tube means it is hydrosalpinx. Hydrosalpinx occurs due to infection.
I would suggest you to get a hysterosalpingography( HSG) done to assess the patency of the fallopian tubes. If both tubes are not patent, then you have to go for in vitro fertilization(IVF) for conception.
Cause of Hydrosalpinx should be sought for and accordingly treatment should be done.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Wishing you good health.
