So What Happened?

.. its the most painfullest thing..I had missed my periodand didn't really think anything of it .. because it took me a year to get pregnant with my 2 year old daughter..and even after I had her I still wouldn't get pregnant .. so I went on... than like a week later I started having shoulder pain on my left side and a little discomfort on my adominal... but didn't go to the hospital.. my friend told me to go to sleep and the pain would go away .. so I did and still the pain stood there .. but this time I had fainted a couple of times and trew up ..went to hospital..the docs told me I was pregnant but it didn't look good.. I almost died .. I needed a blood transfusion asap .. and than they rdmoved a piece of my right fallopian tube..
But ...doctors say I still can have babies

I have never read the book you mentioned but I have read, Taking Charge of you Fertility, it is a very informative book in regards to teaching you how to know when your ovulating by temping and charting everyday. It may be good for you to try. Good Luck

It took me 12 months to get pregnant again after my ectopic. I tried 3 months of clomid with no luck. Then, I had a hsg test done at the hospital which cleared out my one good tube. We were pregnant on my next cycle. :) Good luck hun!

Since you still have O. Fallopian Tube, and ovulation alternates from side to side each month, I'm sure you will be fine.
Do you feel a little twinge on the side with the tube every other month--that's ovulation! Try to tune into which month is that side & ramp up efforts! lol
My boss got pregnant with 1/4 of O. ovary--and you're WAY ahead of that as far as "equipment" goes! Good luck!

I also lost a tube due to ectopic pregnancy. I agree with you, very painful and at least 2-3 month recovery. I then tried 3 months of clomid and fell pregnant on the last cycle. I have since had another child (1 month of clomid) and am now pregnant with our third (unplanned and unexpected!!). It is possible to fall pregnant with only one tube. The way the endochronologist explained it, the diagrams you see in textbooks of the uterus with the tubes going up and out of it with the ovary at the end on both the right and left side of the uterus, is not quite how it looks inside our body. In our body, the tube and ovaries are kind of side-by-side, over the back behind the uterus, so either tube can carry the egg, regardless of which ovary releases the egg. Each month the alternate ovary releases the egg, one month left, the next right, etc. I fell pregnant with the left ovary the first and third times (they can tell by a cyst that forms just after pregnancy), and the right ovary for the middle child. I only have the right tube. So it is possible. By the way, you don't need to use Clomid after an ectopic pregnancy. I think it's just a coincidence that both the other response so far (Bethany C) and myself were using it. So don't go rushing out to get a prescription! You don't mention how old you are. They say, over 35 - try for 6 months then get checked out by an endocronologist, if under 35 - try for a year. Hope this helps.

I had the same thing happen (lost my right tube as well)....and although it took longer (almost two years) I did get pregnant again afterwards (without any intervention)! Just keep trying and stay positive! My mother in law said her mother had five children with only one fallopian tube!
