Hello, its not so difficult to conceive with one normal ovary but the chances decreases as in our two ovarys only one ovulates in each menstrual cycle. Mostly it alternates if right ovulates in this menstrual cycle then mostly left ovulates in the next menstrual cycle and then right in next cycle and usually this follows. But it depends on individual basis in some cases only left ovulates conseceutively for few cycles and then right ovulates and in very few cases both ovaries ovulate in the same cycle. In one ovary many follicles are formed but only one attains the maximum size and ovulates and other follicles regresses. Size of follicles increase from 1 st day of cycle and gradually increases upto day of ovulation and after ovulation regresses. Ovulation occurs 14days prior to the start of next mentruations if cycle is regular. Having sex 4 days before and 4 days after ovulation regularly has maximum chances of fertilisation and getting pregnant.
