Is it possible for a woman to conceive, with only having her fallopan tubes and ovaries, but not her womb?

I don't see how that would be possible unless she did an invritro using someone else's uterus.

Why ask an impossible oblique question; quite willing to answer of course but need more information. A fetus can attach inside a fallopian tube but the chances are very rare and very dangerous.

There is such a thing as an ectopic pregnancy, where the fertilized egg never makes it to the uterus and usually stays in the fallopian tube. But in that case the fetus can't be carried to term. A woman has to have a uterus to be able to carry a fetus to full term.

It is a rather interesting question, you have to admit, but without a uterus the fetus cannot develop normally. Fallopian or tubular, are not to term and can endanger the life of the mother and the fetus. It is not recommended, but sometimes it happens by misstake. Still interesting.

Without the uterus the sperm can also not make it anywhere close to the egg for fertilization
