Understanding Laparoscopy Tubal Patency
What Is This Procedure?
Laparoscopy Tubal Patency is a minimally invasive diagnostic procedure used to evaluate whether a woman’s fallopian tubes are open. A tiny camera (laparoscope) is inserted through a small incision near the navel, and a harmless dye is introduced into the uterus. If the dye flows freely through the tubes, they are considered open. This test is known for its accuracy and also allows doctors to directly observe pelvic organs.
When and Why It’s Recommended?
Doctors recommend this procedure for women facing infertility issues, especially after trying to conceive for over a year. It’s also advised in the following cases:
– 1)Abnormal results from HSG (Hysterosalpingography)
