Hey thanks for your faith in the health care magic.i have gone through your question and understood your problem.
yes TB causes blockage of follipian tubes.If your gynecologist diagnoses you as having genital TB based on these unreliable tests, then please do NOT start anti-TB medicines. Please insist on getting a second opinion from a physician, preferably once who is a TB specialist.wait till culture reports.
