Question: can we flush water inside vagina to clear possible blocks in the tubes etc?
I found the below text at http://www.webmd.com/infertility-and-reproduction/guide/hysterosalpingogram-21590

it says “Occasionally the dye used during a hysterosalpingogram will push through and open a blocked tube”. Does this mean flushing a clean stream of water in side the vagina/uterus can help clearing blocks in fallopian tubes. Sorry if I sound very stupid. Is such a treatment ever exist? I know a girl personally who conceived immediately after this diagnosis.

========================================
A hysterosalpingogram is done to:

Find a blocked fallopian tube. The test often is done for a woman who is having a hard time becoming pregnant. An infection may cause severe scarring of the fallopian tubes and block the tubes, preventing pregnancy. Occasionally the dye used during a hysterosalpingogram will push through and open a blocked tube.
Find problems in the uterus, such as an abnormal shape or structure, an injury, polyps, fibroids, adhesions, or a foreign object in the uterus. These types of problems may cause painful menstrual periods or repeated miscarriages.
See whether surgery to reverse a tubal ligation has been successful.

Don’t attempt this with tap water… you could introduce who knows what up there and really screw things up.
I think you should be talking to a gynocologist about this.
