Blocked fallopian tubes is one of the most common causes of infertility in women.

IVF experts of the best IVF centre in Ghaziabad – Gunjan IVF World share a detailed blog on the possible symptoms of blocked fallopian tubes.

What is the role of fallopian tube in achieving pregnancy?

“Fallopian tubes play a vital role in conception. It forms the passageway for the ovum to travel from the ovary and wait to meet the sperm. Upon fertilisation, this tube acts as the passageway for the fertilized egg to travel to the uterus for implantation. In some cases, both these tubes or either of the tubes might be blocked thereby impacting the fertilization process. In such circumstances, there is no pregnancy,” stated Dr. Gunjan Gupta, well-known gynaecologist Ghaziabad and Medical Director & Founder of Gunjan IVF World – the best IVF clinic in Ghaziabad. Gunjan IVF World has three other highly advanced IVF centres at Janakpuri, Noida and Meerut and has been bestowed with the award for North India’s best IVF clinic chain by Economic Times two times in a row.

What are the reasons of blocked fallopian tube(s)?

“There could be many factors causing blockages of fallopian tube or tubes. Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID) could be once of the causes of tubal factor infertility. It is an infection of the reproductive organs caused due to sexually transmitted infections like chlamydia or gonorrhea. Endometriosis could be another possible factor wherein tissue resembling the uterine lining grows out of the uterus thereby affecting the fallopian tubes,” commented Dr. Garima Sharma, Consultant and Centre In-Charge of the most talked about IVF clinic in Janakpuri – Gunjan IVF World, who else!

“Tubal blockages could also be a result of adhesions from previous pelvic surgeries. Fibroids cannot be ruled out either. These non-cancerous growths in the uterus often press the fallopian tubes,” added Dr. Shubhda Gupta, gynecologist Noida and Consultant at Gunjan IVF World, a popular IVF center in Noida.

What are the possible symptoms of tubal blockages?

Though blocked fallopian tubes often do not show any symptoms, there could be some signs that women need to look out for.

“The first and foremost visible symptom of tubal factor infertility or blocked fallopian tubes is a woman’s inability to conceive despite trying. Not only that, women with blocked fallopian tubes can also experience recurrent pain in their pelvis or belly region,” stated Dr. Aastha Raheja, Consultant at the best IVF center in Ghaziabad – Gunjan IVF World.

“Pelvic pain during menstruation or ovulation, irregular periods, pain during intercourse or sticky vaginal discharge could also be other symptoms of blocked fallopian tubes,” added Dr. Megha Solanki, Consultant at the best IVF clinic in Janakpuri – Gunjan IVF World.

“There can be cases of a fertilized egg getting stuck in the tubes on account of blockage. That is known as an ectopic pregnancy which cannot get detected in an initial scan. Women with ectopic pregnancy can have all possible signs of pregnancy like pain on one side of the stomach, vaginal bleeding, etc. Always consult your fertility doctor if you face these symptoms,” concluded Dr. Anshu Dhar, Consultant of a leading IVF center in Indirapuram – Gunjan IVF World.
