[|Human|] I have questions regarding possible infertility. I have ulcertive colitis and have several surgeries and now have not been able to get pregnant. Im seeing a specialist now and they are worried about scar tissue around my tubes. What can help with this?
[|AI|]  Hi, Thanks for writing to Chat Doctor. If a patient with similar complaints come to me, I usually suggest undergoing diagnostic laparoscopy. By these adhesions can be visualized properly and also distribution of it. In same setting if adhesions are diagnosed then they can be released. It is unlikely for adhesions to release with Chat Doctor.  I also suggest continuing folic acid supplement which helps in producing healthy eggs. I suggest getting tubal patency done. If tubes are open then it is unlikely to cause problem in fertility and don't worry about adhesions outside. If tubes are blocked due to compression from adhesion then the option left are tubal recanalization or IVF. I suggest going for IVF instead of tubal surgery. IVF has better results. Hope I have been helpful. Regards
