She Was 42, Had One Ovary, One Blocked Tube — And Conceived Naturally. Here's Her Story


Healing Blocked Tubes | Natural Fertility Stories

I want to tell you about a woman I will call Mommy T.

Not because that is her real name. But because that is what she became.

When she first reached out to me in November 2020, she was 41 years old. She had been married for years with no children. Her husband had started going outside the marriage, chasing other women, hoping one of them would give him a child. She knew it. She carried that weight every single day.

And yet, she did not give up on herself.

That is the first thing I want you to hold onto as you read this story.

Her Situation Was Unlike Anything I Had Seen Before

When she explained her medical history to me, I had to pause and take it all in.

Years earlier, she had undergone surgery for an ovarian cyst. During that procedure — called a unilateral oophorectomy — doctors removed one of her ovaries because it was too badly damaged to save. Her fallopian tube on that side was left intact.

Then, some years later, her remaining ovary developed a cyst. Doctors operated again. This time they were able to save the ovary — but the fallopian tube on that side had become infected, so they removed it.

When she came to me, this is what she was left with:

  • One ovary — on her left side
  • One fallopian tube — on her right side, with no ovary beside it
  • Adhesions blocking that tube, confirmed by an HSG report she shared with me

Think about that for a moment. Her only ovary and her only tube were on opposite sides of her body.

In the natural world of conception, an egg released from the left ovary travels into the left fallopian tube. A tube on the right, with no ovary next to it, should not be able to catch that egg.

The medical odds against her were enormous.

She was also 41 years old.


What We Did Together

In line with what I always do when someone joins my private program, I first took time to understand her full picture — her health background, her diet, her lifestyle, her stress levels.

What came out of that conversation shaped everything we did next.

1. Diet Changes

Her diet had room for improvement, particularly around foods that drive inflammation in the body. Inflammation plays a significant role in the formation and persistence of adhesions. I encouraged her to reduce inflammatory foods and increase her protein intake. Within three weeks, she had made the changes. She was committed.

2. Physical Therapy

This is one of the most important tools I use for adhesions specifically. Adhesions are bands of scar tissue. They are not permanent. With the right physical movements done consistently, the body can begin to soften and release them over time. I shared specific video guides with her and asked her to practice daily. She did.

3. Combo Tea

I introduced her to what I call the combo tea — an anti-inflammatory herbal tea that supports the body's own natural healing processes. This has been part of the protocol I use with women dealing with blocked tubes and adhesions.

She also asked me at some point about serrapeptase, an enzyme supplement a relative had mentioned to her. I told her she could try it if she wanted, as long as she did not abandon everything else. She used it for a while, then stopped, but continued the other remedies.

Then Silence

After some months, I did not hear from her. That happens. Women go quiet when life gets busy, or when they are simply getting on with things.

Then in late 2021, a new number appeared in my inbox.

The person was asking about natural remedies for preventing miscarriage.

I did not recognize the number — I had changed phones by then. I asked who she was.

She told me.

It was her. your client in Ibadan, Oyo State, Nigeria with one ovary and one blocked tube, that you treated. 

She was pregnant.

I was surprised and excited at the same time!

How Did She Conceive? Her Doctors Had an Answer That Surprised Me

I was curious. How had this happened, biologically? Her ovary was on the left. Her tube was on the right. How did an egg travel across to reach that tube?

She explained what her doctors had told her: the fallopian tube had essentially reached across — bending and extending itself — to pick up the egg released by the ovary on the opposite side.

I had never heard of this before. I went and researched it.

It is real. It is documented in medical literature. It is called transperitoneal migration of the ovum — the egg crossing the pelvic cavity to reach a tube on the other side.

It is rare. But it happens.

Her body, after months of anti-inflammatory support, dietary changes, and physical therapy, had done something extraordinary.

What Happened After

The pregnancy was not without challenges. She had spent a great deal on medical care during the months I had not heard from her. By the time she contacted me again she was about four months along, and her doctors had placed her on bed rest to reduce the risk of miscarriage. She had stepped back from running her business. Her husband was away and largely absent.

She was carrying so much, in every sense.

I encouraged her to follow her doctors guidance closely and take things easy. Her doctors stabilised her and she continued bed rest.

Finally she gave birth.

Unfortunately, I lost contact with her after that because my phone developed a fault and I lost many numbers in the process. I tried to reach her but could not. I still hope she will find her way back so I can hear how she and her child are doing.

Why I Am Sharing This Story

I share it for the woman reading this right now who has been told her situation is hopeless.

Who has had surgery. Who has one tube, or one ovary, or both. Who is over 40 and feels the window closing. Who has a marriage under pressure because of this struggle.

Mommy T was all of those things.

She was willing to make changes — to her diet, her daily routine, her lifestyle. She was consistent. She trusted the process even when it was slow. And her body responded.

I am not a doctor. I do not make promises or guarantees. Every woman's body is different and every situation has its own complexity.

What I do is share what I have learned through years of research into natural remedies for blocked tubes and adhesions — and walk alongside women who are ready to do the work.

Are You in a Similar Situation?

If you have blocked tubes, adhesions, one ovary, or have been told natural conception is unlikely — I would love to hear your story.

My private program is for women who are serious about exploring natural support alongside whatever medical care they are receiving. It is not a magic fix. It is a committed process.

If you would like to know more, reach out and let's talk.

Because if Mommy T's story teaches us anything, it is this:

The body has a capacity to heal that medicine sometimes cannot fully explain. Give it the right conditions, and it may surprise you.
