Question 2

hello doctors

Adhesions, reclosure, ectopic pregnancies and damage to the uterus/ fallopian tubes or other structures are a serious concern. The patient may also have an allergic reaction to the dye. Talk to your Gynecologist for  a discussion of your options.

Question 3

what does the oviduct do? why is it shaped like a funnel?

Accepted Answer

Fallopian Tube: The oviduct, or fallopian tube, picks up the egg that is ejected from the ovary during ovulation and transports it to the uterus.  During a cycle where pregnancy occurs, fertilization actually occurs during this transit cycle.  The funnel has tiny little fronds on it that wave in the fluid of the pelvis, drawing the egg into its opening, almost like the tentacles of a sea anemone.

How would you know?: I can not come up with a scenario where it would be possible for someone to know that a certain sensation is coming from the fallopian tube. Assuming you are not pregnant a fluttering sensation would most likely come from the intestines.
