TTC with one Fallopian tube

[Hannabanana2021]

Anyone here TTC after Ectopic surgery or with one Fallopian tube due to medical reasons that want to support each other? Or if anyone has any successful stories conceiving with one tube welcome to bring positivity to the post x

Haven't had a tube removed but was told after HSG that there was no dye spillage at all and that both tubes were blocked and was referred for IVF. I conceived during my first round but sadly ended in a miscarriage. 2 years (and a new partner) later I conceived my daughter naturally.

@Mummyme87 yeah diluted urine does make a difference, if I start getting darker lines I tend to test 2 or 3 times a day as well just to make sure I don't miss the peak 🤯 I'm really hoping you get yours soon x

@HoneyLemon29 I normally do lunch time and 8-9pm after CD10 but this week with half term has made it challenging.
I feel a bit and sore in my lower abdomen tonight, not as much as usual but definitely something. Could be from all the BD’ing however 😂😂😂

@Mummyme87 I was actually thinking the same today, feel a bit crampy, ah yes the BD'ing. My partners in his element 🤣

@Mummyme87 how have your OPKs gone today? X

Hey ladies.

I had my scan today for my medicated cycles. Great response but all on my right ovary - tubeless side. Couldn't make it up.

Weirdly I'm less emotional than last time. I think in part because of this thread and the hopeful stories about catching from the opposite side. Fingers crossed that happens 🤞🏼

Hope you are all doing well xx

@HoneyLemon29 @Mummyme87 any news on the OPKs?

@s154 I hope you are doing ok xx

@myrainbowjourney I have seen sooo many ladies having scans and having confirmed ovulation on the tubeless side. What does this mean for your left ovary?

I'm a little confused with my OPKs today. Before losing a tube I got peaks very quickly after getting a "high" reading on the same day, which started last night. But today I've been testing every few hours and they're remaining more or less the same. Here's a picture of the chart. I haven't even recorded some tests today as they were the same. I don't know if I'm going to get a low peak or my body just isn't going to ovulate yet. Or at all 🥺 before surgery I would get peaks of over 2. I'm going to test one last time in a couple of hours x

@HoneyLemon29 very very negative here on the OPK front. I’m wondering if I ovulated a few days ago on CD11/12 which would make me 2/3dpo. Who knows.
Do you know think today’s OPK are positive? They look very very dark

@HoneyLemon29 I think it just means my left ovary is asleep 😂. There were two tiny follicles but not big enough to even note. My notes actually say something along the lines of 'no activity'.
Really hope my tube wakes up and does it's business floating to the other side.

That definitely looks like a good peak to me. I'm like you, always got really strong peaks, so I understand why it feels like it's not the same. But that's still really strong and I do think sometimes those apps just don't pick up the same result. I've had some dark ones that by eye I would say is peak, and it comes up as like 0.7.
I think you need to be getting DTD with those xx

@myrainbowjourney
ohh sorry I misunderstood what you said, I know what you mean now they were checking which ovary will release an egg this cycle? I really hope your tube moves for you I really do 🤞 the problem with me is I over analyse everything, and because the tests aren't doing what they used to I automatically assume a problem. We've DTD about 6 nights out of 7 for the last week and I'm not stopping there 🤭😅

@Mummyme87
It does look like your CD10 test was so close to matching the second line 🤞

About an hour ago I had to ask my partner to grab me painkillers. I was in so much pain on the right side that resembled the Ectopic pain so much just the opposite side, then felt stitch line pain throughout my lower belly I couldn't walk properly. And now I'm worrying about that 😮‍💨
The pains gone now thankfully.
I'm going to test one last time today with an OPK in about an hour and I'll post the results x

Well it's still pretty much the same 😬 if that's my true peak then it's the lowest it's ever been. I am tracking temp as well so will see what that does over the next few days and I'll continue testing LH tomorrow to see what the day brings 🤞

I wouldn’t worry about the number @HoneyLemon29 it looks very positive to me. My app has decided my peak was CD10, I’m going to assume it was the next day as definitely was not a positive OPK to my eye albeit very close

@Mummyme87 it's all very frustrating isn't it. My OPK this morning is still reading high 😬 my temp dropped yesterday but that should've dropped after ovulation not before surely? I'm tempted to give these OPKs up next cycle. Every other time they've been spot on and how they should be (before surgery) I can see why people say sometimes they're more stress than they're worth 😵‍💫
But then again they could generally be picking up that I am indeed having a failed ovulation this month. I don't know whether ovulation testing changes if you ovulate from tubeless side 😪

It’s all very stressful isn’t it @HoneyLemon29 I’ve always been bang on for Ov, will be interested to see when AF comes this month (obvs praying it doesn’t come!!)

I would probably trust your temping than the sticks

@Mummyme87 will you be pregnancy testing at any time or just waiting and seeing if AF turns up? That for me is a hard question because I say to myself I'll wait but when that time comes around I can't resist 🥴 yea I'm guessing it's down to the temp now to see if it keeps rising, I think that'll be the only way I know for sure now unless the tests change today x

@HoneyLemon29 I’m a terrible early tester. I aim for 10dpo but always start at 7/8dpo 😣 I don’t know when I’ll test this cycle now I’m not sure when I ovulated

@Mummyme87 I'm the same. I do well and testing isn't on my mind then one day I'll wake up and thinking "I need to do this today"
I'll try my hardest this month but I know I'll cave 🥴

Hey ladies. So I went to have a scan yesterday. As we all predicted, it was really early and they couldn't see anything. I am only 3 weeks pregnant. They done a blood test and asked me to come back next Tuesday 1st March as they predicted that they will able to at least see the location then and can confirm whether its a healthy pregnancy.
This week will be the longest of my life. Praying everything will be ok.
They did also say that ovulated from the tubeless side (right) and my left tube picked it up! So hoping this gives everyone some hope.
I am getting some weird pains, it feels left sided but then at times right. I am trying to not stress and not think about it. Please pray for me.

@HoneyLemon29 - I think your strips look pretty positive, mine actually don't even get that dark ever. Hoping this month is your month too! x

@myrainbowjourney thank you so much. xx I wouldn't worry about one ovary. You just need to trust your body. I am glad it has helped to talk. It really has helped me massively too.

@Mortifiedwoman since my ectopic pregnancy surgery, I have been getting ovulation pain however I didn't have any pain this month... which made me feel like did I even ovulate? Like I said, my strips never come up as strong or dark.. so don't stress! x

@s154 hoping your surgery went well. When you feel letter, give us an update you're doing ok x

@Mummyme87 I started testing really early too as you hear people getting their positives at like cd9. I was as negative as it can be at cd11 and only got my positive at cd12 x

@NewtoTTC87 I'm keeping everything crossed for you 🤞 💜

@HoneyLemon29 thank you so much. I am keeping everything crossed that this cycle is the one for you! x

I'm on another thread and might have just found something that might interest ladies on this thread. It's called Medicheck! It's an at home blood test (finger prick test) that can test for all sorts of things regarding fertility. So this month a week before my period is due I'll be doing the progesterone check test. It'll be confirming that i have indeed ovulated and whether my progesterone levels are a good level to support a pregnancy. They also do HCG tests and 48 hour HCG tests. Thyroid checks. I'm sure there's loads more but this is all I've looked for at the moment 💜

I dreamt I had two positive BFP 😣 TTC gets deep into your head

@Mummyme87 I hate dreams like that 🥺 I had one a couple of weeks ago giving birth to a boy ☹️

@NewtoTTC87 how did you get on with your blood test? 💜
