Infographic showing statistics of women with tubal infertility


Blocked Fallopian tubes are one of the most common causes of female infertility. When the tubes are blocked, eggs cannot travel from the ovaries to meet sperm for fertilization. For many women, the big question remains: “Can blocked Fallopian tubes be naturally unblocked?”

For some women, the answer is yes — but for many, it’s a no. This is especially the case among the educated class in Western countries. In Nigeria and other parts of the world, however, women with blocked fallopian tubes often turn to natural remedies. Some try them on their own, while others seek the help of herbal practitioners. Interestingly, after some time, a number of these women do go on to conceive. While those who can afford it may choose IVF as an alternative path to motherhood.

Because of the mixed outcomes among women who try natural remedies to unblock their tubes, many conclude that such remedies do not work. There are myths and facts surrounding natural remedies, medical treatments, and what is realistically possible. Let’s break them down.


Myth 1: Blocked Fallopian Tubes Can Never Be Treated Naturally

Many women believe that once the Fallopian tubes are blocked, the only solution is IVF or surgery. This isn’t always true.


Fact: Some types of blockages, especially those caused by mild adhesions, inflammation, or hydrosalpinx, may respond positively to natural remedies that reduce inflammation, improve circulation, and support tissue repair. For example taking teas made from top herbs or Combo fertility tea  doing fertility massage, Castor Oil Therapy amongst others.


Myth 2: Herbs and Natural Remedies Work for Everyone

It’s common to hear success stories of women who used herbs or supplements and conceived naturally. However, this leads many to assume that the same method will work for everyone.As a result many ladies are constantly looking for something , anything to drink to unblock their tubes.

Fact: The effectiveness of natural remedies depends on the cause and severity of the blockage. For example, herbs may help reduce inflammation in mild cases but cannot reverse complete tubal damage or scarring.


Myth 3: Diet and Lifestyle Don’t Matter

Some women think that only medicine or herbs can fix blocked tubes, so they ignore diet and lifestyle.


Fact: In reality, diet plays a huge role. Eating anti-inflammatory foods, reducing refined sugar, avoiding processed foods, and maintaining a healthy weight can significantly improve the chances of natural healing.

Myth 4: Once a Doctor Says It’s Blocked, Nothing Can Change

Some women feel hopeless after an HSG test revealed blocked tubes.


Fact: Medical imaging is important, but it doesn’t always reveal the full picture. Tubes that appear blocked due to spasms or mucus plugs may open later with the right treatments and lifestyle changes.


Myth 5: All Natural Remedies Are Safe

Because herbs are “natural,” some women assume there are no risks in trying multiple remedies at once.


Fact: Overuse or combining too many herbs can stress the liver and kidneys. Following expert guidance and taking breaks between remedies is safer and more effective than self-medicating endlessly.


Authors experience 

It is possible to unblock Fallopian Tubes naturally, but is not always easy. Not everyone succeeds with it.

  • Identify the exact cause of the blockage (HSG, ultrasound, or laparoscopy).
  • Use natural remedies under proper guidance.
  • Combine with diet and lifestyle changes.
  • Remain consistent and patient
