Ectopic Pregnancy: How Did You Conceive For Your Next Pregnancies? Did You Use Any Help From Clomid?
My partner had an Ectopic pregnancy almost 4 months ago. We are using frozen donor sperm and IUI. We need to fly interstate to conceive until the Vic law reform comes into effect. She just flew up only to find it is her ovary with no tube ovulating. We are considering Clomid but concerned about the long term effects. Any stories to share even just post ectopic success stories are great!

Since the fallopian tube connects the ovary to the uterus, for that month there may be no chance of the sperm fertilizing the egg, which I guess you guys already thought. I had a sister who had been taking clomid after unsuccessful attempts to conceive for several years. What clomid does is, increase the release of eggs that have a chance of getting fertilized, which in some cases lead to multiple pregnancies. Unfortunately this medication did not work out for her. After a year or so, her and her husband moved from Utah to Virginia. Within a couple of months she got pregnant, but with an ectopic pregnancy. The f. tube was not damaged. Soon afterwards she got pregnant again and gave birth to a beautiful baby. Nine months later they had another child. I guess the change in location, and decreased stress may have increased her fertility chances. There are also other methods that you can try and talk to your physician about such as the use of boxers instead of briefs, time of month to try to get pregnant, and positioning. I hope this helps
