Description
Blocked Fallopian Tubes is a disease of the Fallopian Tubes.
The obstruction in the Fallopian tubes which causes Infertility is termed as Blocked Fallopian Tubes.
Fallopian Tubes are the part of Reproductive System and are present in a pair. They connect the Ovary to the Uterus. The Ovaries release an egg that travel to the Uterus via Fallopian Tubes. The Egg meets the Sperm in the Fallopian Tubes. Then the Fertilization occurs in the Uterus.
However, some bacterial infections or other health issues like Trauma or may cause obstruction in the Fallopian Tubes. If the Fallopian Tubes are blocked the egg fails to reach the Uterus. Hence, the egg and the sperm will not meet. This causes Infertility.
The Fallopian Tubes are present in a pair. If one tube is blocked, still chances are left of being pregnant for a female. But if both of her tubes are blocked then it may leads to Infertility.
