In recent years, the use of acupuncture within infertility has gained popularity all over the world, but there is no research describing the use of acupuncture in infertility of incompletely obstructive fallopian tube. In this paper, we present a research design evaluating the effects of acupuncture on incomplete fallopian tube obstructive infertility. This is a randomized, control acupuncture and signal-blind trial. A total of 120 patients will be enrolled in this study and will be randomized into two groups. True acupuncture plus hydrotubation or control acupuncture plus hydrotubation will be performed for 12 weeks. The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the additional value of acupuncture on the tubal patency rate and pregnancy rate beyond Hydrotubation ,therefore to guide clinical.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'FEMALE', 'stdAges': ['ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '42 Years', 'minimumAge': '22 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* I.Patients between 22 and 42 years of age with infertility II.diagnosis of incomplete Fallopian tube obstruction based on one of the following conditions: a.
