Regardless of the exact cause, it is important to follow up with your OB GYN doctor and make sure that the inflammation is improving, because inflammation of the fallopian tubes that is long standing and untreated can lead to chronic pelvic pain and infertility [zocdoc.com]

To flush out all the pathogens from the body and to cool it, drink more water and not too sweet juice. To recover quickly, complete rest is required. [lowerabdominalpaintreatment.com]

One main cause of tubal disease is scar tissue (adhesions), resulting from endometriosis, gynecological surgery, bowel surgery, Cesarean section, ruptured appendix or other internal trauma. [azfertility.com]
Causes of Tubal Disease Scar tissue resulting from endometriosis or abdominal or gynecologic surgery (bowel surgery, cesarean section, ruptured appendix, etc.) can block the egg from entering or traveling down your Fallopian tube to meet the sperm. [shadygrovefertility.com]

Workup
Many patients may be asymptomatic, with the disease being discovered during the workup for infertility. Signs and symptoms are often vague and can include acute or chronic pain, infertility, and vaginal bleeding. [radiopaedia.org]
Diagnosis of Tubal Damage Tubal factor infertility is a very common problem and because of this we routinely test to determine if the tubes are open and undamaged as a part of the normal fertility workup. [ivfplano.com]

Laboratory
- Leukocytosis

Treatment
In cases of severe uterine damage, surrogacy (another female who can carry the pregnancy) is the only treatment. Fortunately, uterine factor infertility is relatively uncommon. Treatment options are available based upon each couple's diagnosis. [northshorefertility.com]
Treatment of proximal fallopian tube obstruction involves the passage of a small catheter into the origin of the tube, which usually dislodges the blockage. [fertilitysanantonio.com]

However, if his prognosis is bad, he might also remove the ovaries as well. For this reason, it is very important to detect this condition as early as possible, especially for women who plan to have children. [lowerabdominalpaintreatment.com]

Prevention
When this occurs, the tube becomes blocked preventing the sperm from travelling up the fallopian tube to meet the egg. A woman can also have an unusually shaped uterus that prevents successful implantation. [fertilityanswers.com]
What is prevention? Cancer prevention is action taken to lower the chance of getting cancer. By preventing cancer, the number of new cases of cancer in a group or population is lowered. [northshore.org]
Damaged or blocked fallopian tubes are a major cause of infertility, either by preventing the sperm from reaching the egg the ovary has ovulated into the fallopian tube or by preventing a fertilized egg (an embryo) from traveling to the uterus to implant [arizonafertility.com]
