Hi, I just joined this forum, but thought I'd weigh in...I had an HSG a couple of months ago and learned that both of my tubes were blocked. After having a good cry, I decided that although my RE gave me a diagnosis, only I (and God) could decide my prognosis. I said a heartfelt prayer and went searching on the internet for my miracle.
Although it is possible to temporarily unblock the tubes via surgery (as was mentioned in couple of other posts) the tubes can become blocked again in a couple of months due. My understanding is that tubes that have been unblocked naturally, have a greater chance of remaining open - giving you a wider window of opportunity in which to conceive. I'm in my mid-30s, but decided I was willing to devote about a year to trying to conceive naturally via alternative remedies...I figured the best case scenario was that I could open my tubes and get pregnant without ART and the worse case scenario was that I could make my body and reproductive system healthier, stronger, and better able to withstand the stress and deluge of hormones that ART procedures like IVF put on your body.
The first thing I did was read The Infertility Cure by Randine Lewis. It is must read for any woman struggling with infertility that describes in detail both Western and Eastern (e.g., acupuncture, acupressure, fertility massage, herbs, diet) approaches to diagnosing and resolving fertility challenges and includes a section specifically on blocked tubes. Dr. Lewis' guidance was the baseline I used to seek out viable natural therapies for naturally unblocking my own tubes.
Anyone else had positive experiences?
