Re: Ectopic pregnancy after IVF

Hi Maria, I was in the same situation as you, my first fresh IVF transfer and ended up with an ectopic pregnancy on my right tube. From what I researched and was told, IVF is actually a risk factor for ectopic pregnancy, because of all the injections we take to stimulate the follicles, apparently th...

Re: Two ectopic pregnancies, what to do next

Hi Nicole, Really sorry to hear about your ectopic pregnancies. Unfortunately ectopic pregnancy can still happen with IVF, I am going through one myself. So please if you have a chance for it to happen naturally, I'd say to give it one more go. I am not a trained medical professional, but before IVF...

Re: Hcg rising day 4 after MTX shot

Oh and I also don't have much pain and pretty much no bleeding since the first mtx shot maybe that's why they want me to do surgery as it doesn't look like the second shot works

Re: Hcg rising day 4 after MTX shot

Hi Karen and Kriluma and whoever is reading this, I came back to have my follow up blood test today after my second MTX shot, my hcg reduced very little from 1300 to 1277.

Re: Hcg rising day 4 after MTX shot

Update on this After talking to doctor I decided on the second MTX shot, I did ask about the chance of it working, since the first injection my hcg didn't reduce at all. Was told that it's unlikely that it will work this time, however since I am not in much pain she's happy for me to have the second...

I'm not sure how it happened, I have cut out all folate rich food after the shot. I am waiting for doctor to see what to do with me now, more likely th...

Re: Ivf turned into ectopic pregnancy

Hi Hols, They did book me in for a scan when my hcg hit 330, the scan was actually the next day (when later hcg was 540), it took the nurse a while to find the mass (the ectopic) but it was definitely confirmed on my right tube. It was measured 10mm. I guess it was ivf so I was closely monitored, an...
