you absolutely can, as long as the unblocked fallopian tubes' ovary releases an egg properly, it will probably just take you longer to conceive since you will not know if your unblocked ovary releases an egg in any given month. good luck.. try http://www.babyzone.com , it is a very good resource, and lots of fun/interesting/educational info!
It is certainly possibly and I know of many women in which this has happened.
Bear in mind that whatever disease process it was that damaged the one tube may have had some partial effect in wounding the second tube without totally occluding it. So your chance of getting pregnant isn't exactly 50% of what it was when you had both tubes working. It's actually statistically a little less.
Depending on your age and your level of urgency, you can try on your own for a set time, try fertility drugs and insemination for a set time or in the event that you're still not pregnant, you can then move on to IVF. For women under 35 whose only problem is tubal (no egg problem, no sperm problem) the chance of a healthy pregnancy after one cycle of IVF is 60%+ and after three cycles of IVF, it is a very nice 95%+
Hopefully, you will in the group that gets pregnant without getting to do IVF.
Yes, but only half the chance. Generally we ovulate on one side each month, taking turns. So instead of 12 chances a year you would have 6. A blocked tube means the eggs produced on that side won't reach the uterus and therefore can't be fertilized.
I had a friend who had her tubes flushed with dye and was impregnated within 3 months. She had horrible scar tissue from an infection and was told she would never have children. She went on to have 3 boys, all happy and healthy. IVF wasn't an option back then.
Best wishes!

Most of the time, yes. In some cases no due to blockage or an improperly functioning ovary.

Sure you can. My grandmother had 6 kids with only one ovary. The other was removed when she was a kid because of cysts.
