How is the diagnosis of the violation carried out?
Check patency of the fallopian tubes can be carried out by 3 methods:
- X-ray hysterosalpingography ( GHA );
- ultrasound hysterosalpingoscopy (sonogasterosalpingoscopy - SGSS);
- diagnostic laparoscopy.
Of all these ways of checking the patency of the fallopian tubes, ultrasound hysterosalpingoscopy (UGSSS) has become most widespread. This is easily explained by the fact that this method has a high informativeness - over 90%. In this case, for patients it is less painful than laparoscopy.
What are the advantages of USGSS over other diagnostic methods?
When performing the procedure for testing the patency of the fallopian tubes using ultrasound (USGSS), a doctor on the screen can see the fallopian tubes in a three-dimensional image, thanks to modern ultrasound machines. This allows you to pinpoint where the blockage occurred.
In addition, in contrast to the testing of patency of the fallopian tubes with the help of X-rays, the ovary is not exposed to irradiation during ovarian ultrasound. This provides an opportunity to conduct such a survey as many times as necessary, for example, before and after treatment, without fear for the health of a woman.
Due to its availability and the absence of consequences for the woman's organism, checking the patency of the fallopian tubes by ultrasound hysterosalpingoscopy is carried out at the initial stages of diagnosis, in determining the cause of miscarriage, i.e. with such diseases as polyps of endometrium, myoma, as well as anomalies of the development of the uterus.
Despite the fact that this method is the most informative and practically does not harm the body of a woman, there are also contraindications to its conduct. These are:
- stage of exacerbation of inflammatory gynecological diseases;
- uterine bleeding;
- acute infectious diseases;
- cysts, tumors, saktosalpinsk;
- tuberculosis.
