Tubal Infection, also known as Fallopian Tube Infection, is caused by unwarranted and excessive growth of malignant bacteria in the fallopian tubes. Fallopian tubes are a conduit between ovary and uterus and plays an important role in the process of fertilization.
Infection in Fallopian tubes is called salpingitis and is one of the most common reasons of infertility among women. Salpingitis is often seen in Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID) and is of two types – a) acute salpingitis and b) chronic salpingitis.
In acute salpingitis, fallopian tubes develop inflammable swelling and start emitting a fluid. They might also get puffy and filled with pus.
This situation can culminate into blocking of fallopian tubes. Chronic salpingitis persists for a lonfer period but symptoms are relatively milder. It is advisable to immediately contact a doctor when any symptom of salpingitis apears else it can result in permanent damage to fallopian tubes.
