Can someone with blocked fallopian tubes menstruate?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Yes, blocked fallopian tubes interfere with the passage of ovum and thus may lessen the chances of pregnancy. Menstruation occurs when one shreds a layer of uterus and blocked fallopian tubes may not interfere with it.

A 30-year-old female with blocked fallopian tubes can still have menstrual periods. The menstrual cycle is controlled by the ovaries and the uterus, not the fallopian tubes.
- Menstruation occurs because the uterus sheds its lining each month if there is no pregnancy.
- Blocked fallopian tubes affect the ability of the egg to travel from the ovary to the uterus, which can cause infertility, but do not stop the uterus from shedding its lining.
- Therefore, menstruation usually continues normally even if the fallopian tubes are blocked.
If there are changes in menstrual patterns or other symptoms, it is important to consult a gynecologist for evaluation and personalized advice.

View allI'm really worried because I had a small amount of precum on my hand, and I wiped it off. But then, after a few minutes, I used that finger to touch my girlfriend's vagina. We're both virgins, and I'm not sure if this can make her pregnant. Could she be at risk?
The chance of pregnancy in this situation is extremely low, especially if there was minimal precum and no ejaculation. However, if you both are still concerned or if her period is delayed, you can take a home pregnancy test after about 2 weeks. For future peace of mind, consider using contraception during any sexual activity to reduce the risk of pregnancy and STIs.

I'm really worried about my 30-year-old daughter. She's having bad cramps, and we usually use BUSCOPAN tablets for relief. But she's currently on medication for high blood pressure and is also 3 months pregnant. Is it safe for her to keep using BUSCOPAN? If so, how often can she take it? I'm concerned about any risks for her and the baby.
Please consult her gynaecologist
