Tubal Cannulation at Vardhan Fertility Centre
Opening Blocked Fallopian Tubes to Restore Natural Fertility
Blocked fallopian tubes are a common cause of infertility in women, preventing eggs from reaching the uterus for fertilization. At Vardhan Fertility Centre, we offer Tubal Cannulation, a non-invasive, fertility-enhancing procedure to treat proximal tubal blockages and restore tubal patency—offering many women a chance at natural conception.
Tubal cannulation is a minimally invasive procedure where a thin catheter is inserted through the uterus into the fallopian tubes to open blockages near the uterine end (proximal end). It is usually done under hysteroscopic or fluoroscopic guidance, and often avoids the need for major surgery or IVF.
