Assessment of the Fallopian Tube

If a woman finds it difficult to get pregnant, then it is possible that the fallopian tube patency is insufficient on one or both sides. There are various methods to find out if this is the case. In our clinic we use the method that causes the least stress to the body: a sonography.

We use a sugar solution, which is carefully injected into the uterus. With the help of transvaginal ultrasound, both patient and doctor watch how well the fluid travels from the uterus along the fallopian tubes into the abdominal cavity. A harmless and painless process, which is performed without anaesthesia and in the clinic.
