Does follicular study show blocked fallopian tubes?

Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

A follicular study can not determine whether the fallopian tube is blocked. If the fallopian tube is blocked, you will still ovulate. Ovulation is mainly the function of ovary.

  1. Follicular Study

    • A follicular study is an ultrasound test that tracks ovarian follicle development and assesses ovulation.
    • It does not indicate if fallopian tubes are blocked.
  2. Tests for Blocked Fallopian Tubes

    • Hysterosalpingography (HSG): Uses X-rays and dye to check tube openness.

I'm 41 with regular periods but sometimes get spotting around day 10 or 11. All my blood tests thyroid, prolactin, vitamin B12, CBC are normal, though my HbA1c is 6.1 and I have mild cholesterol. An ultrasound showed polyps, and compared to a scan two years ago, they've grown by 0.9 in size. Do they need to be removed? I'm not sexually active and have a 5-year-old daughter. Could these polyps keep growing, and is surgery necessary? Can I just monitor them for changes? What's the chance they could turn cancerous

gynaecologist opinion is advised to the patient

My wife is about 5 months pregnant and she's been dealing with some pretty uncomfortable itching for the past couple of weeks. I'm really concerned about it and wondering if there's any safe medicine or anything we could try to help with this.

For itching during pregnancy, especially in the 5th month, consider the following options under medical guidance: topical creams like calamine lotion, aqueous cream, or E45 cream; oral antihistamines like chlorpheniramine; or natural remedies like coconut oil, olive oil, or oatmeal baths; however, always consult your obstetrician before administering any medication to ensure safety for both mother and fetus.
