You poor thing!! I hope I can help you feel a little better...

I too had an emergency ectopic situation (wont go into too much detail but it was similar to your story!). I lost a tube too but kept both ovaries etc. I had suffered a miscarriage about a year before this also so there was doubt around the health of my remaining tube. I was absolutely heart broken as I can imagine you are.

My advice to you is - let yourself get through this situation before you start worrying about what is ahead. Give yourself time to heal.
There is every chance you will conceive again in the future. I did!!!

Love to you hun xxxxxxxxxxxxx
 
:hugs: I had a very similar story too. Hospital didn't take my pain seriously and it nearly cost me my life. It did mean I lost my right tube too but I kept both ovaries.
Over a year of TTC later and I had a lap and dye and ovarian drill, next cycle - pregnant! This baby is in the right place, so it can be done. But like farmerswifey said, don't worry about that just yet, grieve for this baby and your traumatic experience and let yourself heal. :hugs:
