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.

I've been diagnosed with a 4.5cm chocolate cyst and my doctor suggested laparoscopic surgery. Is this procedure safe and will it affect my chances of getting pregnant afterward? Also how long does recovery usually take after this type of surgery?
Laparoscopic surgery for a chocolate cyst is generally safe and can even improve fertility chances after surgery. While there are some risks associated with any surgery, the laparoscopic approach is minimally invasive, reducing the risk of complications. Recovery usually takes a week or two, with most activities resumed within that timeframe
