Can I still get pregnant after having an ectopic pregnancy and having one fallopian tube removed?

Patient's question:

My wife had an ectopic pregnancy removal last year, removing one of her fallopian tubes. I don't know what the attending doctor and my wife discussed, but it was understood that she could no longer get pregnant. We want children, so what tests should we have carefully checked?

Doctor's answer:

The other fallopian tube was removed, which may potentially affect your lifespan. If you plan to get pregnant, there is no need for both partners to go to the hospital for detailed pre-pregnancy examinations. In particular, the woman should check the patency of the other fallopian tube and examine the development of eggs in the other ovary. Carefully observe how the follicles can grow and mature, and how they can successfully reach menopause. If there are no abnormalities, you can prepare to get pregnant. However, the chances of delivery may increase. It is recommended that you have the growth and development of the follicles examined under color Doppler ultrasound. After the follicles mature, have intercourse once every day within the ovulation period. The chances of delivery may increase significantly.
