Sunday I had an ectopic rupture and removed my right fallopian tube.

Hi, basically I went to hospital on Saturday with pain on my right side. They ran tests ect and couldn't work out what was the cause.

Sunday I had another scan where they found I had an ectopic pregnancy rupture and was bleeding internally. They removed the right fallopian tube but left my ovary.

Just wondering if anyone know what my chances of having a baby in the future is, I feel like I'm playing infertility bingo and getting close to a full house.

Haven't had an appointment to discuss what happened as yet but the few times I've asked questions on here it's prevented numerous melt downs! Xx

Hi Bryonybear,

I'm going to take a guess that with one out of two fallopian tubes, that your chances of pregnancy may be roughly 50% of what they would statistically be (based on your age).

In other words, I don't think that alone would cause infertility.

I'd guestimate that the odds of pregnancy are still good for you.

Hi thanks for the reply.

I've got a list of potential fertility issues, endo, adeno, fibroids, cyst on left ovary and now running on one fallopian tube.

I'm going to the doctors this week hopefully to find out some more answers but thought I'd ask on here if anyone had any personal experience 🙂 xx

I have only just read your blog. In 1971, I had my right fallopian tube and ovary removed, due to Endo. I was told I'd not have children; thankfully, I went onto to have 3 healthy children.

Did you need a surgery or lap before each pregnancy ?

Hi, in 1971 they had not invented the laparscope, so I had a laparoscopy. I, nor the surgeons knew what they would find until I was operated on. I had general anaesthetic and took a long while to wake up, by which time it was late evening. I had to wait until late next morning to be told that that left ovary and fallopian tube were removed, due to Endo and that I wouldn't be able to have children! I proved them wrong, thankfully 4 pregnancies and 3 safe deliveries. I was a Guinea pig for drug trials before my 3rd baby which helped with painful Endo.
