What Causes Blockage In Previously Patent Follopian Tubes?
Hi Doctor, I had patent fallopian tubes on both sides 6 years ago before I had my first son. Had another test recently at another clinic and result said the tubes are blocked - no spillage of contrast via bilateral fallopian tubes into the pelvis is noted . How likely are patent tubes to become blocked? It can be just random?
