Unfortunately: There is no effective treatment for hydrosalpinx. It can be caused by scar tissue, inflammation, or infection, but if it is affecting your fertility, then the usual solution is to block off the tubes completely and proceed to ivf.

Tubal Damage: So this refers to swelling of the fallopian with fluid. this fluid general becomes inflamed and infected. From a fertility standpoint, it means the tube wont work, and it also means the fluid may negatively impact the uterus and even prevent a baby from IVF. The best treatment is to remove the tube, The most common reasons for a hydrosalpinx by far are infection and endometriosis.
