About 20% of infertile females coming to me have problems with the functioning of fallopian tubes. A few of the reasons for blocked fallopian tubes are Pelvic infections (PID) leading to salpingitis and hydrosalpinx Ectopic pregnancy Tubal Ligation (Birth control) surgery Adhesions following abdominal surgery and Genital Tuberculosis.
Today, let me share a fruitful story of a patient with blocked fallopian tubes due to “Tubal Ligation”, which is a birth control surgery. A poor couple from Kolkata, who had lost their five years old son seven years ago due to severe infection in the brain(meningitis) and the unfortunate wife had undergone “Tubal Ligation” at the time of her delivery as the couple did not want more children in future.
