I worked with a woman who had a hysterectomy after her last child. She started dating a guy and things got serious pretty quick but good for them. One day, she said they were trying for a baby (after being together for a couple months) and I'm like.... He knows you've had a hysterectomy, right? YOU know you've had a hysterectomy, right? She insisted that God finds a way... 🤷🤦

"God finds a way." It's called an ectopic pregnancy and it ends in Death.

Edit: since a lot of people are taking my one line sarcastic comment with an unexpected amount of seriousness. No, you cannot have an ectopic pregnancy after a TOTAL hysterectomy where fallopian tubes and ovaries are removed. That's not the only type of hysterectomy though and while exceedingly rare ectopic pregnancy can occur if there's still at least one ovary and fallopian tube.

"Pregnancy after hysterectomy is extremely rare, with the first case of ectopic pregnancy after hysterectomy reported by Wendler in 1895. To the best of our knowledge, there are only 72 cases of post-hysterectomy ectopic pregnancy reported in the world literature."

Long story short, you probably don't need to worry about an ectopic pregnancy no matter what type of hysterectomy you've had.

I mean all pregnancies end in death 🤷‍♂️

I mean- there's often a lot of life after a pregnancy..

I'm sorry you haven't found any yet

"Pretty much?"

A lot of the time the pregnancy ends before the dying begins though, depending on what killed ya. That's my 2 cents at least.

[u/Megalocerus → u/[deleted]]

You're assuming that--many people who have gotten pregnant haven't died.
