Hi my names Kristina me and my husband have been ttc for a year we just started with our fertility clinic of course they determine he has no issues he's ready to go so now there say my tubes may be blocked from all the surgeries I have had ? Has anyone else heard of this I have had surgeries like getting my gull bladder out had 11 inches of my intestines removed and my appendix due to chrones disease. But how would that scar tissue jump into my Ftubes? I don't get it or does anyone else have trouble ttc and have chrones or ibs ? Thanks for your responses
Just over here trying to get preggers

Re: Scarring from surgeries ?
Welcome! You actually got great advice from @kariann12. And you will find out this place is the cat's pajamas if you hang out long enough.
You also can not control what people say on an Internet forum.
IF sucks and unfortunately other people know, including myself.
Pretty sure most women (not going to say all and speak for everyone) on this board get that "shits not easy to go through." You posted a question (with poor punctuation making it difficult to read/interpret) and @kariann12 answered it very well while also requesting additional info from you to maybe help cover things you hadn't thought or or left out for a more clear answer to be provided. She also pointed out to you that there are certain terms that are pretty much verboten over here for you to avoid using in the future. What more do you need?
If I was not mobile I would put a gif of a cat riding a ROOMBA right here.
Omg, I just got a ROOMBA for Xmas and it is charging as I type. I can not wait to let it loose.
And I might need to go get a cat to ride it
I loved the sit n'spin!!
How about a pair of sharks?
I have had Crohn's since I was 16 and had nine surgeries. I lost function in one of my fallopian tubes after it ended up scarred and stuck to my intestine after surgery.
A gall bladder removal shouldn't affect your fallopian tubes. But surgery on your intestine, depending on the location and how invasive the surgery was, can cause adhesions (the technical term for bands of scar tissue in your abdomen) that can affect your tubes. The body's natural reaction of the trauma of surgery is to form scar tissue, and some people (due to genetics or who knows what) tend to form a lot more than others. If you ever had surgery in your pelvic area, especially on your rectum, you're at high risk for scar tissue on the tubes. Another major risk factor is if you've ever had peritonitis- a major infection of your abdominal cavity that can occur as a complication after surgery or if you'd ever had a bowel perforation.
Your doctor can order a test called an HSG where they'll shoot dye into your tubes in radiology and see if they're clear. Good luck.
