Question

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.
