Can I still get pregnant after having my fallopian tube removed?

Some women have no choice but to have their fallopian tubes removed after suffering from fallopian tube diseases. However, this method deprives women of their right to be mothers, because the fallopian tube is a very important tool for women. If the fallopian tube is damaged, the egg cannot enter the woman's uterus, which will hinder pregnancy. So, can you still get pregnant after the fallopian tube is removed?

The fallopian tubes appear as a pair of slender and curved tubes located at the upper edge of the broad ligament of the uterus. The inner side is connected to the uterine horn, and the outer end is free and close to the ovary. The total length is 8-15cm. It is divided into the interstitial part, isthmus, ampulla and fimbria.

What is the main role of the fallopian tube in pregnancy?

The main functions of the fallopian tube in pregnancy are sperm transport, egg capture, providing a fertilization site and delivering the fertilized egg into the uterine cavity. The sperm enters the fallopian tube through the uterine cavity, and the egg also enters the fallopian tube from the fimbria. After the two combine to form an embryo in the ampulla, they are transported to the uterine cavity through the fallopian tube under the movement of cilia. Pregnancy occurs after implantation. Therefore, once there is a problem with the fallopian tube, it will cause female infertility.

Can I still get pregnant after a fallopian tube removal?

The fallopian tube is an essential organ for female pregnancy and an important place for the combination of sperm and egg. If one side of the fallopian tube has to be removed for some reason, there is still a chance of pregnancy as long as the other side is normal, but the pregnancy rate is reduced. Also, even if you get pregnant, the risk of ectopic pregnancy is higher than normal. If both fallopian tubes are removed, in vitro fertilization will be needed to assist pregnancy.

Only 1/3 of the fallopian tube remains. Can I still get pregnant?

The total length of the fallopian tube is 6-15cm. If a part of it is removed and only 1/3 remains, pregnancy is still possible, but the chance of pregnancy is reduced. In addition, the normal structure of the fallopian tube has changed. Even if pregnancy occurs, the risk of ectopic pregnancy is still higher than that of normal people.

No matter what factors cause infertility, we must start with the cause of the problem in order to find a cure.
