Best Answer

A woman can only become pregnant if an ovum (egg cell) from her ovary is released into the oviduct and fertilised by a sperm there before moving down into the uterus and becoming implanted in the endometrium wall. If your oviducts are blocked, the ovum cannot travel into it and meet sperm so it can be fertilised so pregnancy is impossible.

How does an egg travel along the oviduct?

At ovulation, the egg is released into the abdominal cavity near the funnel-like opening of the oviduct. Cilia on the epithelial lining of the duct help collect the egg by drawing fluid from the body cavity into the oviduct. Together with the wave-like contraction of the of oviduct, the cilia convey the egg down the duct to the uterus.
