Hi, I think you can conceive with one patent tube also. You can go for ovulation induction with timed intercourse for 3 cycles. You can take some medicines like clomiphene for inducing ovulation and track your follicles growth by repeated ultrasound and when follicle is more than 17 to 18 mm, take injection for rupture of follicles. Be in contact with your husband for 2 to 3 days after the injection. Take progesterone for next 2 weeks after rupture is confirmed on ultrasound. Do a urine pregnancy test after that. If it doesn't work, then you can go for IUI. Talk to your doctor regarding this.
