Ways to Unblock Fallopian Tubes

Blocked Fallopian tubes are one of the more common causes for infertility in women. Many factors can contribute to the blockage. These include previous surgeries in the abdomen or pelvis, endometriosis, appendicitis and infections. There are many methods, including medical and homeopathic procedures, to treat this condition.
  1. Tubal Surgery

    • Tubal surgery or tuboplasty can be performed to clear the blockage in the tubes. Your abdomen is opened under general anesthesia. The Fallopian tube's distal opening is restructured and stitched in order to prevent future blockages. After the tubes have been repaired, methylene blue dye is injected through the cervix to check the success of the procedure.

      Tuboplasty procedures have high success rates and will allow you to go home the same day of the operation. Medication will be prescribed to prevent adhesions in the Fallopian tubes.

    Manual Pelvic Physical Therapy

    • According to Family Relationships.org, Fallopian tube blockages can be cleared without your having to go under the knife, enabling you to conceive naturally without surgery. This non-surgical treatment was developed by Clear Passage Therapies, or CPT, and uses a series of manual physical therapy techniques that can be performed at a CPT clinic. The program can be completed in a week.

      According to Family Relationships.org, CPT's noninvasive treatment has successfully cleared tubes in 61 percent of women with totally blocked Fallopian tubes. Of these participants, 53 percent were able to conceive naturally after the series of therapies.

    Traditional Chinese Medicine

    • Traditional Chinese medicine principles also offer natural approaches to treating blockages in the Fallopian tubes. Chinese medicine practices are drug-free and non-surgical alternatives.

      Chinese herbs are the main ingredient in the therapy. Herbs can come in the form of douches, capsules and even herbal tampons. The combination of different herbs works to help reduce the inflammation and to prevent adhesions and scarring in the Fallopian tubes. The herbs naturally soothe body tissues and destroy infections inside the tubes.

      Another part of the process is deep tissue massage. This enables the blockages in the Fallopian tubes to loosen up. This massage is self-performed, allowing you to gauge how much pressure your body can take. The massage is accompanied by yoga routines that help stretch the pelvic organs.

      You might also be required to undergo a natural cleansing program, which includes taking nutritional supplements in your diet.

      You are advised to remain as free from stress as possible. You may be coached on stress management through concentration, meditation and relaxation procedures.
