Tubal Factor Infertility

Tubal factor infertility accounts for approximately 20-25 percent of infertility diagnoses and can be due to a partial or full blockage of the tubes, scarring, or damaged tubes.

Blockages or damage may be the result of one or more of the following:

  • Pelvic inflammatory disease due to infection
  • Endometriosis
  • Scar tissue resulting from abdominal or pelvic surgery
  • Tubal ligation

Variable treatment options including tubal surgery and IVF exist. To schedule a consultation to discuss the work-up, diagnosis, and treatment of tubal infertility please call the office at 610-619-8300.
