TTC over 2 years, just found out 1 tube is blocked...

[VillageFete]

Hi,

I've been ttc for over 2 years, I have PCOS. Tried clomid in the past to ensure I ovulate every month (I appear to only ovulate every other month at most) it done the job in terms of regular ovulation but still no bfp. I had a hsg/hycosy last year, I was told both tubes were fine

Yesterday I was taken in for a hysteroscopy and laparoscopy. After surgery the nurse told me that my right tube is completely blocked. I have to see my private consultant to discuss it further and get the results of my biopsy.

I know 2 weeks isn't long to wait but it feels it. Does anyone know what my option would be with PCOS & a blocked right tube? My friend conceived after they removed her left tube that was twisted, but they may not remove mine? Am I going to have to go straight to IVF, or are there other avenues I can explore? With trying for so long I am worried I only ovulate from my right side.

Village, did they try to unblock your tube during the lap?

I had emergency surgery to remove my left fallopian tube due to ectopic pregnancy earlier this year and remembered asking in a panic what would happen to the future eggs released from my left ovary. The doctors & specialist nurse each explained that fallopian tubes are dynamic structures, they move around and are not fixed to the ovary on that side! The scan I had diagnosing the ectopic showed that I had ovulated from the right ovary that month, but it had been caught by, and got stuck in, the left tube. Apparently they don't have 100% accuracy catching the 'wrong' side, but they have a damn good go!
Just wanted to reassure you that despite one of your tubes being out of action, your chances have not been cut in half. Mother nature is amazing!!
