How is the FTR Procedure performed?

by | Set 21, 2023 | Uncategorized | 0 comments

Fallopian Tube Recanalisation (FTR) is a non-surgical procedure which clears blockages to improve the possibility of pregnancy 🌸 This procedure is performed in 4 easy steps 👇

🌷 An intravenous drip is placed and short acting medication is given for sedation.

🌷 A speculum is then placed in the vagina and a catheter is inserted through the cervix into the uterus. 

🌷 A liquid dye called ‘contrast’ is injected through a catheter to fill and examine the uterine cavity and fallopian tubes

🌷 If a fallopian tube is found to be blocked, a small, soft microwire is threaded through the fallopian tube to clear the blockage.
