What are the Traditional Chinese Medicine treatments for blockages in the infundibulum of the fallopian tube?
1. Ampullary obstruction of the fallopian tubes can affect normal fertility, thus timely treatment is recommended. TCM therapies such as herbal medicine and meridian dredging are advised.
2. The most commonly used TCM treatment for ampullary obstruction of the fallopian tubes is herbal medicine. It is suggested to boil and consume a decoction made from drugs such as Rhizoma Sparganii, Curcuma Zedoariae, Fructus Citri Sarcodactylis, Spina Gleditsiae, Radix Salviae Miltiorrhizae, Radix Paeoniae Rubra, Radix Angelicae Sinensis, Olibanum, Myrrh, and Herba Periplocae. These herbs can alleviate obstruction to a certain extent and promote dredging of the fallopian tubes. If herbal prescriptions are not preferred, some proprietary Chinese medicines can be used, such as Fuke Qianjin Pian and Yimucao Granules.
3. In addition to treating ampullary obstruction of the fallopian tubes with herbal medicine, meridian dredging is also necessary. This treatment method mainly involves acupuncture and cupping, which are relatively effective. However, the treatment cycle is relatively long, and it should not be abandoned casually, as otherwise, all the treatments will be wasted.
4. The TCM treatment methods for ampullary obstruction of the fallopian tubes have been clearly introduced. Although TCM treatment can improve this condition, for complete cure, it still needs to be combined with some Western medical therapies, such as surgical dredging.
