How do you cure tubal blockage with fluid?
It is a very tough disease . I will never suggest any patients with tubal blockage or hydrosalpinx to take a laparoscope.

That is because the inflammation in the pelvic cavity is still there.

A minimally invasive surgical procedure performed in the abdomen and pelvis is considered laparoscopic surgery. It involves a laparoscope to see inside your body without fully opening it up. A laparoscope is a thin, telescopic rod with a camera. In contrast to standard abdominal surgery, which requires a 6- to 12-inch incision, laparoscopy surgery only requires two to four minor incisions, each no larger than half an inch. Various Surgeries are performed using the Laparoscopic method such as : -Hernia repair surgery -Appendectomy (appendix removal) for appendicitis -Cholecystectomy (gallbladder removal) for gallstones -Rectopexy (rectal prolapse repair) -Abdominoperineal resection (rectum removal) -Ectopic pregnancy removal. -Rectopexy (rectal prolapse repair) These Surgeries need to be performed by well-qualified Surgeons as it involves a lot of expertise in understanding the issue with patients. Dr.S.N.Baser at Harsh Hospital & Maternity Home is one such experienced Surgeon in Surat and performed more than 1000+ surgeries.
