Can a woman get pregnant after having an ectopic pregnancy?

Patient's question:

About two years ago, my husband and I were preparing to get pregnant, but after getting pregnant, a thorough examination revealed that I had an ectopic pregnancy. So, we didn't have any more children. Now, my body has been ( means "to regulate" or "to bring into balance") quite well, and I've mentally prepared myself as well. Have you ever had an ectopic pregnancy and still been able to get pregnant?

Doctor's answer:

After an ectopic pregnancy, it is possible to get pregnant. However, if you had one fallopian tube removed during the ectopic pregnancy, your current chances of pregnancy would be 50% of what a normal woman's chances are. This is because humans have two ovaries and two fallopian tubes. If one is problematic, the other must be used. Before trying to conceive, you can go to the hospital for a pre-pregnancy check-up. After that, you can actively prepare for pregnancy. During the ovulation period, when having intercourse, the woman can raise her hips and stay in bed for another half hour to enhance the chances of delivery.
