This Woman Didn’t Get Pregnant Despite Taking Ovulation Stimulants for 6 Years… Then We Discovered the Real Reason
Many times, we think that the path to pregnancy is simple, and that as soon as a woman starts taking ovulation stimulants, that’s it—pregnancy will happen right away.
But the reality is completely different, and not every case of delayed pregnancy is due to ovulation issues.
And the story I’m about to share today is the biggest proof of that.
As explained by Dr. Riham ElShal, specialist in Obstetrics, Gynecology, IVF, and Fertility Delays, this woman had been dreaming of becoming a mother. For six years, she went from doctor to doctor, trying everything, listening to every piece of advice, taking stimulants, injections, and medications continuously.
She moved from one doctor to another, and they all told her:
“Your ovulation is fine, your husband’s tests are normal, there’s no obvious problem… just keep going.”
And with no one taking a real step forward, this painful journey went on for years.
But when she came to us, we said no—we need to start from the beginning.
We listened to her full story, wrote down every detail, asked about everything, and started from step one—as if we were the first doctors she had ever met.
After a very long consultation, we asked her to do something extremely simple that no one had thought to request before: a hysterosalpingogram (HSG).

The result was shocking—but it was the key.
We discovered that her fallopian tubes were completely blocked. Yes, completely!
The passage through which the egg is supposed to travel to achieve pregnancy had been blocked for years.
All the eggs that were being produced, all the medications and stimulants she had been taking, were leading nowhere—simply because the pathway was blocked.
As the doctor described it,
it’s like having a beautiful tree full of fruit, but the path to reach it is blocked—
so no matter how much we water it or care for it, we’ll never be able to enjoy its fruit.
And that’s exactly what happened: six years of trying and waiting… and the cause was hidden.
It’s important to know that not everything shows up in ultrasound scans, and not everything is about ovulation or lab results.
Sometimes there’s a deeper issue that needs to be investigated using other methods—like HSG or laparoscopy.
The lessons from this story are many:
• First: Not every case of delayed pregnancy means you should take ovulation stimulants.
• Second: Just because a doctor says “Your ovulation is fine” doesn’t mean the case is closed.
• Third: The most important step is finding a doctor who truly listens to you—not one who just prescribes treatment and rushes the diagnosis.
After discovering the cause and treating the problem, God willed—and the big surprise happened.
She got pregnant, naturally, without stimulants or assisted reproductive techniques.
This happened after one monitored cycle, starting from day one, without rushing or unnecessary interventions.
The egg grew slowly and steadily, and by day 18 it reached 16mm. On day 21, ovulation occurred naturally—and it was 100% healthy.
And the most beautiful news?
A natural pregnancy occurred!
After they had nearly proceeded with IVF, and after an unsuccessful IUI attempt, pregnancy happened—without any intervention.
This was a great blessing and mercy from God, after years of stress and waiting.
This story is a powerful reminder:
Sometimes we keep heading down the wrong path and repeat the same steps without seeing results.
We need to stop, ask questions, reassess the plan, and search for the real cause.
We need to listen to our bodies and find a doctor who truly listens and sees the full picture—not just a single page.
