Hydrosalpinx means a fallopian tube is filled with fluid, often because it has become blocked.
Some people have no symptoms, while others have pelvic pain, unusual discharge, a history of infection, or difficulty getting pregnant.
Imaging helps show the blocked fluid-filled tube and can help doctors understand how it may be affecting pelvic pain or fertility plans.
Ultrasound and HSG can help show the dilated tube and whether the blockage affects fertility planning.
Treatment depends on symptoms, infection history, fertility goals, and gynecology recommendations.
This entry explains the finding. The next step is having a radiologist interpret your specific scan, not a general definition.
