Hello, I had ectopic pregnancy 5 months back in September for which I took two injections of methotrexate. It took almost 4 months to complete dissolve.in Feb last week I did final ultrasound and it came all fine in that and my doctor give me a antibiotics course for a week and started folic acid and said we are good to plan baby again. I wanted to confirm what are the chances that I will or will not have ectopic pregnancy again. Or what are the tests or things can be done to avoid it.

Hi pragati.. these things cannot be predicted... you can only be vigilante next time to get check up as early as you come to know about pregnancy that everything is ok this time..

Chances of ectopic pregnancy are 10 times higher in a lady who had previous ectopic pregnancy. Lapro Hysteroscopy and tests for genital tuberculosis can predict repeat ectopic to some extent. Can be prevented by taking proper treatment of causative factors but still no guarantee. You better get your bhcg level monitored carefully to diagnose it early.
