Hi everyone, I just found out I’m pregnant again, just 3 months after my first ectopic pregnancy which I had surgery for (they cut open and left the tube in, other tube is completely blocked). I ovulated just 2.5 weeks ago so it’s super early! But I’ve been having mild pain on my far right side wher...

Hi all, Has anybody had hair loss and/or acne since having their ectopic pregnancy? Any suggestions or ideas on when it might stop? As soon as I had my surgery I had mild acne pop up on my face and just won’t go away no matter what I try (very unusual for me). It’s also on my shoulders and back a bi...

I’m sorry for your loss. I also am having self esteem issues. I feel like my body has failed me and I feel very disconnected to it like I don’t trust it. I don’t feel sexy either. (My poor hubby!) Surprisingly I find myself angry for no reason at any new mothers or pregnant women I see or meet, or j...

Wow I thought I was the only one with this symptom. I had the same! For me I think it actually began a month or two before I fell pregnant and then fluctuated up and down becoming the worst after my laparoscopic surgery. I had NO other symptoms like blood in urine, frequency, urgency, burning, etc. ...

Thank you for your response, Karen. I just got back from a follow up appointment and the doctors didn’t seem to be concerned. They didn’t say what the tightness was from, but I assume from adhesions/scar tissue. It seems to have gotten a bit better, especially after a big day of (leisurely) walking ...

I’m so sorry that you have had to endure this. I had surgery 1 week ago and all the emotions are still very raw. We just had neighbours move in, and found out they have 2 young boys and the mother is expecting. Plus the grandmother was there smoking. This was the first bout of real anger I felt. I h...

I had laparoscopic surgery 1 week ago for ectopic pregnancy in left tube, and they also found a hydrosalpinx in right tube. They made an incision in the left tube to take out the EP, and left the right tube alone. I had been feeling tightness around the incision site on the right for the last cpl da...
