Found a cystic structure in my left adnexa and the report says it might be mild hydrosalpinx. Is there any way to treat this without going through surgery? I'm a bit worried about what this means for my health

Yes, there are options to manage mild hydrosalpinx without surgery. Sclerotherapy, which uses an ultrasound-guided needle to drain fluid and inject a chemical to prevent refill, is a potential alternative. Additionally, watchful waiting with follow-up ultrasounds may be an option if the cyst is small and not causing symptoms. surgical treatment to unblock the tube doesn't restore fertility, in vitro fertilization (IVF) can bypass the need for the fallopian tube.

I'm a bit worried because I had a C-section due to low amniotic fluid, and now I've put on weight, reaching 75 kg. A friend suggested that I try HERBALIFE NUTRITION FOOD, which are these meal replacement shakes for breakfast. I'm curious if this product is really trustworthy and if there might be any side effects I should know about. Could you guide me on whether it's safe to start using this product?
