Question 1

what are the typical treatments for fallopian tube cancer?

Accepted Answer

Surgery: Fallopian tube cancer can be very serious. It should be treated promptly by a gynecological oncologist. Treatment options include surgery and often chemotherapy but treatment is highly individualized.

Question 2

sre there clinical trials fir fallopian tube cancer or stic?

Accepted Answer

Yes.: Although fallopian tube cancer is rare, there should be clinical trials available for you.  I would check the nci (national cancer institute) website.  Fallopian tube cancer is usually included in 'ovarian cancer' trials even though it is different than ovarian cancer.

Question 3

is fallopian tube cancer the same as uterine cancer?

Accepted Answer

Not exactly: Fallopian tubes are attached to the uterus and cancer of the fallopian tubes may affect the uterus.  However, cancer of the uterus is far commoner than cancer of the fallopian tubes and may spread to the fallopian tubes.  Both organs develop cancer of the glandular tissue, i.e., adenocarcinoma.

Question 4

i have a question about using cannabis to treat stage iv fallopian tube cancer (carcinosarcoma).

Accepted Answer

If it helps, take it: In a person with stage IV cancer, anything that makes life better is okay. If cannabis helps with your mood, appetite, or pain, feel free to use it. It will not treat the underlying disease.
You may wish to get recommendation of your doctor who knows your health better.

Question 5

symptoms of fallopian tube cancer? is this something a doctor would be able to find during a pelvic exam?

Accepted Answer

?: What symptoms do you have?  A papa exam screens for cervical cancer. You would need different testing. Best to see your doctor and talk to her about your concerns first

Question 6

can a transvaginal ultrasound show female organ cancers (uterus, fallopian tubes, ovaries, cervix, and vagina)? mine was clear except for a cyst rupture. my doctor doesnt seemed worried even though 2 months without a period. im beyond worried.

Accepted Answer

Ultrasound: shows abnormalities, from approximately 0.5 cm to anything larger. The irregular cycles, most likely are caused by irregular ovulation.  So pap smears on schedule, and further discussions with your doctor can be reassuring. If you wish to become pregnant treatment for the irregular ovulation pattern is very important.

Question 7

can water or douching solution get into fallopian tubes?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Any liquid under pressure can get into the uterus and fallopian tubes.  It can even happen if you fall wrong while water skiing.  Best wishes!

Question 8

pains in my fallopian tubes have i got a water infection?

Accepted Answer

Water infection?: First, how do you know the pain is in your Fallopian tubes? Second, what is a "water infection". Be more specific and perhaps can help more.

Question 9

i want to know if i can go on water diet even i had laparoscopy right side fallopian tube removed on may 19th 2015. also, when can i try again to conceive?

Accepted Answer

Water diet?: I am not sure what a water diet is--do you mean juice fast? I do not believe fasting is a good idea, and does not work for long term weight loss.

Regarding when to try to conceive, you probably can try after your next menses, but that is really a question for your surgeon.

Question 10

hi doc, i went for ultrasound and they found water in my fallopian tube & had been takin painkillers for my pain for the past 1 week. is this serious?

Accepted Answer

Hydrosalpinx: You are likely referring to a hydrosalpinx. It can cause pain in some patients and lead to a blocked tube but otherwise had no long term health consequences.
