A member asked:

Was told that i have swollen fallopian tubes. what exactly does this mean. never had an std so how did it happen? what treatments exist for it?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Swollen or closed?: Your fallopian tubes can get "swollen" or blocked from endometriosis. Also, chlamydia, a common cause of swollen tubes does not always have symptoms. If your tubes are swollen, but not blocked, you are at risk for a pregnancy in your tubes, which is a life threatening situation. You do not have to treat it unless you want to get pregnant. You will need to see a fertility specialist.
