Ladies, thank you so much for that information. I am glad someone had the knowledge I was searching for. I was boggled by this thought for a few days now.
About how long are tubes before TL?
Mine are now L 6.5, & R 5.0. Of course my age is an obstable also, but here's to praying AND believing for God's best!

Denise, that's why those with longer tubes after TR have higher success. There are many women with short tubes that get pg, but if you have long ones (in my opinion 7 +), I have found that they report more pgs. But the egg is attracted to the fimbria and the little hair-like fingers pull it and capture it. I think many months the eggs does get lost and gets absorbed. Anything is possible, but it makes sense that we have a harder time post TR getting pg thatn before TL. Having the fimbria swooping by like a flower in the wind and brushing the ovary constantly helps the egg to be caught. Post TR, with tube lengths less, the egg will not make it as often.
The body really is a miracle and especially how God made us to reproduce!!

I have no idea where to post this question, but... I was wondering "how" the egg finds the tube after TR, especially when the tubes are usually much more shorter than they were naturally?
It just seems to me that the ovary would now be so far away from the fimbria. Of course there are so many BFP and births that it all just simply amazes me! In my human, finite, mind I picture the ovary so far away from the fimbria and these little eggs wandering off into nowhere land, LOL.
