Fallopian tube blockage is the usual syndrome which affects the women getting pregnant. The blockage in the fallopian tube stops the flow of the sperm and the fertilization of the egg. Every month an egg will be released into the tube which travels from the ovary. When an obstruction is present in the tube the egg will not reach the uterus and even the sperms which travel through the tube to fertilize will also be stopped. This is associated along with some disorders like the pelvic inflammatory disease, bacterial or yeast infection, STD, family planning and much more.

When women are affected by this fallopian tube blockage, they tend to suffer from unusual pain in the lower abdomen. The pelvic region also may get some pain. The pain will be more during the periods. The women tend to get some discharge from the vagina than the normal. If the problem left untreated the complication may be prolonged. Many women in the world are suffering from this syndrome and finds it very difficult to get pregnant. The efficient solution of this syndrome is the IVF. Through the method of IVF, the dream of having the baby comes true.

The blockage can be detected with the help of an X-ray called the hysterosalpingogram. To clear the blockage a surgery needs to be performed with laparoscopy. But still, the complication found to proceed. The IVF is one such method where the doctor takes the egg and the sperm keep directly into the uterus. You should not be worried about the blockage since this method is independent of the blockage. Through an ultrasound needle, the egg is taken into the vagina and placed properly into the uterus. Whereas the sperms and the egg kept together to get fused in the lab.

Most of the women find a good result in the IVF treatment. Then the other fertility methods IVF shows a good result. Many children are being subjected to some chromosomal and genetic disorders. When the couples undergo the IVF treatment there is the chance of choosing the healthier embryos and the chance of getting a healthy baby is also high. Not only the women with the blocked fallopian tube, but men with the low sperm count also won't be able to fertilize the eggs naturally. In that case, IVF will be the better option to insert the healthy sperms into the uterus. The process of In vitro fertilization gives the couple a better hope to have a baby.
