View allI've been diagnosed with a cornual block in my right Fallopian tube and I'm really worried about it. What are my treatment options if I want to avoid surgery? Are there any medications or non-surgical procedures that could help clear the blockage?
For a cornual block in a right fallopian tube, non-surgical options like tubal cannulation, hysteroscopic surgery, and fertility treatments like IVF can be explored to avoid surgery. Tubal cannulation involves threading a catheter into the blocked tube to clear it, while hysteroscopic surgery uses a thin, lighted device inserted through the cervix to access and potentially remove the blockage. If surgical intervention is not possible or successful, fertility treatments like IVF can bypass the blocked tubes
