Fallopian tube catheterization helps open a lady's blocked fallopian tubes. This improves your odds of getting pregnant. The fallopian tubes convey eggs from your ovaries to your uterus (belly). At the point where sperm meets an egg in a fallopian tube, the egg is treated. In any case, if the tubes are blocked, preparation can't occur. This method is done by a specialist called an interventional radiologist. Procedure • An IV (intravenous) line might be placed into a vein in your arm or hand. This line gives you drugs (sedation) to help loosen up you and shield you from feeling torment. • A little metal or plastic tube (speculum) is placed into your vagina to hold it open. • A slim, adaptable tube (catheter) is gotten through your cervix into your uterus. • X-beam color (differentiate medium) is infused through the catheter. It streams up into your fallopian tubes. The color enables your tubes to be seen obviously on the X-beam pictures. This test is known as a hysterosalpingogram (HSG). It will show any blockage that might be in your fallopian tube and help control the remainder of the strategy. • The catheter is moved into the opening of your fallopian tube. • Fluid is infused through the catheter into the tube. This assists with clearing the blockage. The catheter may have a little inflatable or wire on the end. The inflatable can be expanded to help clear the blockage. The wire can likewise be passed to help clear the blockage.
