I mentioned this somewhere else today, but a patient of my specialist back in Aus only had her left ovary and right tube.

They stopped contraception as they thought they couldnt get pregnant... but they did!

Good luck hun, those little eggs have a way of finding their way (as do the swimmers).]]> Sun, 01 Feb 2009 11:26:34 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=23941&PID=603030&title=pregnancy-after-removal-of-tube#603030 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=23941&PID=602839&title=pregnancy-after-removal-of-tube#602839 Author: kandk

I had an ectopic this time last year, and had to have a tube removed. They told me it wouldn't make a difference - and they were right! Got pg as soon as we started trying again.

Good luck to you

Thanks kebakat. I found another forum website where other ladies have had a similar problem to both yours and mine and they had gone on to have healthy pregnancies.

I guess its just a wait and see game in the meantime]]> Tue, 27 Jan 2009 20:01:05 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=23941&PID=599212&title=pregnancy-after-removal-of-tube#599212 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=23941&PID=594975&title=pregnancy-after-removal-of-tube#594975 Author: kebakat

When I went through my ectopic, though I didn't have to loose my tube, if I went down the surgery route though and removed the tube they said it would be about 10% loss in fertility.

I'm sure you will be fine ]]> Thu, 22 Jan 2009 17:43:18 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=23941&PID=594975&title=pregnancy-after-removal-of-tube#594975 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=23941&PID=594956&title=pregnancy-after-removal-of-tube#594956 Author: Sh_az

Hi, just wanting people's thoughts on pregnancy after having a tube removed.

By way of background, the Doctor's thought I had suffered a miscarriage a few weeks ago. They did a scan, which showed a mass in my right ovary which they weren't convinced was related to the pregnancy. They decided to monitor my HCG levels, which continued to drop - not particularly quickly (but that seems normal for me as I have had an eptopic before which was treated with Methrotrexate and the levels took a while then too). Long story short, things had been proceeding (i thought) relatively normally until last Friday when I suddenly got severe pain in my abdomen. I went to hospital where a scan was done and they discovered that my tube was ruptured. They told me I would need emergency surgery and I was referred on to an awesome surgeon.

I freaked out because I thought my chances of pregnancy would be halved. The surgeon told me, no it wasn't the case at all. I would potentially loose 1-2% fertility as I still had both ovaries. She also said that by leaving the tube in (repairing it), the risk of further eptopics would be far greater because of scar tissue. She did try, but she said it was too badly damaged and she thought it was far healthier for me to have it removed. She said that she checked my ovaries while she was in there and they are both healthy my other tube is fine.

Has anybody been through this or know of someone who has. I know of one other person that had the same thing and went on to have two healthy babies.

Trying to be postive but I am a worrier ]]> Thu, 22 Jan 2009 17:24:15 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=23941&PID=594956&title=pregnancy-after-removal-of-tube#594956
