Last Update: 02/16/2023

Antonio Forgiarini, gynaecologist at Next Fertility Valencia, talks to us in this video about the importance of the fallopian tubes in women. As the doctor tells us:

Well, Fallopian Tubes are fundamental to achieve a normal pregnancy or a pregnancy with an artificial insemination because they're like pipes that connect the ovaries to the uterus, so they let the oocyte (that is ovulated from the ovary) to enter through the uterus and to meet the spermatozoa climbing from the uterus to the fallopian tubes. So, in this case, they let the fertilization. If we have no fallopian tubes it is impossible that the spermatozoa reach the oocyte, so we need to perform an IVF.
