it is possible to get pregnant with only one ovary? I had an ectopic pregnancy many years ago and had a fallopian tube and ovary removed and I got pregnant again, I miscarried but all the same it is still possible.

Big Brother contestant Charlie Travers has opened up about having her cervix and an ovary removed after two cancer scares, saying that she "100% would not be alive" if she had waited to be screened at the recommended age of 25.

The receptionist, who entered the house with her mother Jackie, said she auditioned for the show because she wanted to "embrace life to the max" after her health issues.



"I've had quite a tough time in the last seven years health-wise and now I feel I can embrace life to the max," she told New. "When I was 15 I had my left ovary removed because I had a gigantic cyst that was about to explode.

"During a smear test [at the age of 24] in 2011, they found my entire cervix was covered in pre-cancer of the highest grade.

"I had most of my cervix completely removed, but three or four months later I went for a check-up and it had all come back, so I had to have it all taken out.

"If I hadn't gone for an early smear and had waited until I was 25, I 100% would not be alive."




Charlie and Jackie Travers enter the Big Brother house


Asked if she is still able to have children, Travers replied: "I can conceive naturally, but I'm not sure if I can carry a baby full term."

59-year-old Jackie echoed her daughter's comments about why they went on Big Brother, saying: "We had been through quite hard times with Charlie's health problems and now we're over that we wanted to start afresh".

Yes it is possible I worded that last post wrong I should have posted she doesn't think she can have children (that's her words) but she doesn't know if it will happen naturally and even if she does she doesn't know if she can go full term.

Sorry to hear that Tozzie

Was going to say this ^ Having an ovary removed wouldn't mean she can't carry to term either. It's a tough thing to deal with (I've been there) thinking you can't have children but the reality is no one knows if they can have children until they try and although she may have been told she might not be able to have children doesn't mean she can't and it is a bit creepy and a little patronising of Dexter to bring it up on national TV.

thanks Annie, I'm fine, I've comforted myself all these years that it just wasn't meant to be. I am lucky enough to have one child, many are not so lucky. x

Dexter - If I don't think of you in that way then why the **** am I still bothered and why am I still chasing you like a little lost puppy

Charlie - Because.......I (the I is dragged out in normal Charlie style)

They are still talking here but the shot goes to Gina and Sam in the tree house listening to them

Charlie - I care because I adore you

Dexter - I don't I don't care, I would quite happilly be in a relationship with you, ****ing possibly even ****ing marry you you can have ****ing artificial ins....

Cuts back to Gina and Sam laughing and Sam says he wishes he had some confetti to throw over them.

20 Minutes later..

Charlie - What a waste of time then, can't believe I even wasted my breath talking about that again to you, to the housemates, up there.

Dexter - Thanks

Charlie - What do you mean thanks, shut up.

Charlie goes on to say they are incredibly lucky to be here and screw worrying about things, Dexters intentions how he feels about her etc....

Dexter - Do you want me to end it? end your confusion here and now

Charlie - No - Yeah actually no I do want to hear it, is it what you were going to tell me before we sat on the sofas because that ****ing pissed me off aswell

Dexter - At the end of my speech whatever what I was going to say was that, that I truly love you Charlie Travers

Charlie - Ohhh shut up

Right after pausing and playing that constantly to type that up ^^^

I'm wondering if Charlie was the one to initially bring that up, that's what this could mean:

Quote:

If that's the case then that could be why Dexter said what he did about the artificial imsemination....

He goes beyond the pale in his effort to win.
If he is a Public Relations man he needs not to air someone's personal life in this way and that goes for Charlie's mother too.

Also he seems not to be aware that Charlie is not interested in him sexually, she has said there is no attraction that way so why is he talking about having babies with her?
Obcene.

But how many times does Charlie have to tell him she is not interested, only as a friend.
He keeps on because he appeals to viewers like you.

Well it is Charlie talking here. When does she ever give a straight answer to anything?

'She doesn't think she can'. This means she has no idea.

A doctor said to me it is impossible for you to be pregnant. How wrong was he.
You absolutely don't know until you are in the process of trying.
If this convo on either side was for air time that is really bad form.

Dropping it into a conversation like this at such a late stage in the show must mean he wants the public to know and the only reason for that is he wants sympathy votes.

As a PR person (allegedly) I think he could have played the entire game better with this Pièce de résistance up his sleeve.

So basically, whatever the reason he said that is, he's in the wrong?

After 9 weeks in the house she chooses two days before the final to "open up" about this....Charlie's got game, i'll give her that.

Having one ovary does not make a woman infertile... she will still produce an egg every month with her good ovary, so God knows why Dexter has brought up artificial insemination ... he could get still get her pregnant the conventional way (god help us). As many other people have said the whole convo is very strange indeed. No-one in that house knows each other well enough to even consider being parents.
