Pregnancy after ectopic success stories

[JK201]

I had my right tube removed 2 years ago due to an ectopic pregnancy. Been TTC since.

Rather frustratingly my right ovary is my dominant one and I tend to predominantly ovulate from that side (monthly scans confirm this).

Can anyone share their success stories of conceiving from the opposite ovary without a tube? I know it's medically possible but would love to know in reality if this actually happens.

Unfortunately it's the exception rather than the norm and it depends on lots of other things like how free flowing your tubes are or if there are adhesions which make them less able to sweep over to collect the egg

I ve had two ruptured ectopics and now no tubes left. I suspect after my c section they never worked again properly and so it doesn't matter whether the other side could pick the egg up - it was never going to be able to move the egg through It to the right place (my second ectopic was an ivf transfer as I naively thought that would be the answer to our problem of not conceiving again after the first ectopic)

I had a ruptured right ectopic and a dodgy left ovary. 5 years later I had a laparoscopy & die to check the patency of the remaining tube, with a successful natural conception 3 months after surgery. I have 4 DCs now, all naturally conceived with corpus luteum on the right ovary for all of them.

Good luck

@JK201
I'm in the same position. Ruptured eptopic on the right side 2 years ago and I believe my right ovary was the dominant one (except I'm not ovulating atm according to my gyno due to PCOS).

He told me the next step (if Letrozole alone doesn't work for me) would be another laparoscopy to check the remaining tube and the dye test.

Oh good grief I’ve just spotted my typo! I obviously had a lap and dye not lap and die!!! It would be funny if it wasn’t so awful...
