Re: 2nd Ectopic - is there hope for a healthy pregnancy?
Hi, I’m currently pregnant after an ectopic in both tubes - I’m 10 weeks. I had two doses of methotrexate after my first.
From what I read I had a 30% chance of another ectopic after my second, which was scary. Therefore, this is definitely my last pregnancy.

Re: Has anyone conceived via their ectopic tube?
I’ve had an ectopic treated with methotrexate in both tubes. My first ectopic was in 2014 and the advice then was to wait 6 months, I conceived on the 6th month from my right ovary, which was the side of that ectopic. My daughter is now nearly 6. Then, we didn’t ttc until last year. I had a chemical...

Re: Anyone had an ectopic treated with methotrexate in both tubes?
Just thought I’d update that I’m currently 6 weeks 4 days pregnant and it’s in my uterus! Got pregnant first month trying again.
I’m not convinced this is my rainbow baby as I have absolutely no pregnancy symptoms, but we will see.

Re: Anyone else in the UK still waiting for a fertility referral?
Hi Calliepup, Oh that’s good you’ve managed to get that far so quickly! Good luck with the rest of it. Yeah we’ve been trying for about 2 years. 2 ectopics and 2 miscarriages later and we thought [censored word] okay something is amiss here. I’ve also had two ectopics and three miscarriages, althou...

Re: Anyone had an ectopic treated with methotrexate in both tubes?
Hi, Sorry I haven’t been on much. I’m still waiting for my first proper appointment - they are doing a full fertility work up on us because we have been trying for a year, we have had three miscarriages and two ectopics so it seems like there are multiple things going on. Personally I’d try without ...

Re: Anyone else in the UK still waiting for a fertility referral?
I was diagnosed 24th of March, and I think my referral was sent by the GP at the start of April. My first appointment was a video call where they went through both of our histories. Then, about two weeks later we attended the clinic where we did height and weight for us both and I had an ultrasound ...

Re: Anyone had an ectopic treated with methotrexate in both tubes?
Hi, Glad both your levels are reducing. Mine are too - they were 740 on Monday. I did have a few days of really bad cramps but the cramping and bleeding has stopped. We are going to wait 12 weeks from the second injection rather than 12 weeks from hcg 0. I’m going to try and be prescribed folate rat...

Day 4 post methotrexate - 5300
Day 7 -5200, dose 2 administered
Day 4 post second dose - 3800
Day 7 post second dose - 3300
5+0 - 740
5+2 - 1700
6+1 - 4200 - diagnosed
6+3 - 4300 - methotrexate administered
Day 4 post methotrexate - 5300
Day 7 -5200, dose 2 administered
Day 4 post second dose - 3800
Day 7 post second dose - 3300

Re: Anyone had an ectopic treated with methotrexate in both tubes?
Hi guys, Really sorry to butt in but what is a sonohysterosalpingogram?? I’m currently going through my 2nd ectopic (right tube came out in 2019 due to rupturing) but opted for methotrexate as there was no sign of a rupture and I wanted to give my left tube one more shot. When I asked the consultan...

Re: Anyone had an ectopic treated with methotrexate in both tubes?
I’m so glad your levels are dropping!
Mine dropped too! They were around 5200 and dropped to around 3800. It’s still pretty high, but it’s about 25% reduction so I’m happy with that. Day 7 bloods on Monday morning, I’m hoping in the 2000s by then.

Re: Anyone had an ectopic treated with methotrexate in both tubes?
Hi, I got your email but don’t really like using email so I hope you get this. My hcg plateaued on day 7 so I received a second dose. It had only decreased by 2%. As of today, I’ve had a little period like cramping. I have my second day 4 bloods tomorrow morning so I’m hoping I know soon. How are yo...

Re: Anyone had an ectopic treated with methotrexate in both tubes?
My 4 day hcg came back at 5200. That’s an increase of about 1000 from day 1.
My hcg looks like this:
5+0 - 740
5+2 - 1700
6+1 - 4200 - diagnosed
6+3 - 4300 - methotrexate administered
Day 4 post methotrexate - 5200
I’m really worried I’m gonna need surgery.

Re: Anyone had an ectopic treated with methotrexate in both tubes?
I am hoping that the fact ours were able to be resolved with methotrexate gives us better odds of future fertility.

Re: Anyone had an ectopic treated with methotrexate in both tubes?
Hi Callie, Sorry to hear about your pregnancy losses. I am in a pretty similar situation to you except I dont have any children yet. I am 30 years old and had my first ectopic pregnancy in Aug 2020 in my left tube which was successfully treated with two doses of methotrexate. I was diagnosed 3 week...

Re: Anyone had an ectopic treated with methotrexate in both tubes?
I should have added, we have no risk factors of ectopics - my bmi is under 30, we don’t smoke, I’ve never had an STI, PID or endo, and we are both young.

Anyone had an ectopic treated with methotrexate in both tubes?
I’m just looking for my chances of success here, really. I’m 31 and I’ve just had my second ectopic pregnancy. We had two missed miscarriages (one confirmed intrauterine, one was before I had a scan so presumed intrauterine) Then, a tubal ectopic in my right tube which was treated with methotrexate....
