What does TUBAL mean in Scrabble?
adjective
medical
Relating to or occurring in a tube, especially one of the fallopian tubes.
Doctors use tubal chiefly in discussions of the fallopian tubes, the paired ducts that carry an egg from the ovary to the womb, so a tubal pregnancy is one that develops inside a tube rather than the womb itself. The same adjective can describe any tube-shaped structure in the body, though the reproductive sense is by far the most common in medical writing. Tubal ligation, a surgical method of permanent contraception, is probably the phrase most people recognize the word from.
