Hi! Does anyone know if you can ovulate while undergoing methotrexate treatment? I’m now down to hcg of 15 (taking forever!!) and just noticed some discharge that resembles my pre-ovulation discharge from before this ectopic happened. I’ve also had a lot of bleeding a couple of weeks ago that they s...

Hey there! I know exactly how you’re feeling. I’ve had 2 shots of MTX and its seriously a rollercoaster. I’ve had to disappear from work quite a bit as it can be very overwhelming to pretend like everything is fine. I would just say be kind to yourself and if it is possible, take some time off when ...

Thanks Karen! My hcg test today was 21, so its going down albeit very slowly! Good to know its not uncommon for the smaller numbers to take longer to reach 0.

Hi all, I’ve had 2 doses of methotrexate and after the 2nd we started seeing significant drops in my hcg. However my last 2 blood tests have both been 28, and we are nervous it has plateaued. I have no internal bleeding and the ectopic itself is smaller. If it continues to remain at 28 I will need t...

Thank you so much Michele! This was incredibly helpful.
This might be a tricky question to answer, but is it normal/a good sign if I haven’t had any bleeding since my injection? I’ve only really had a light yellow coloured discharge. I did have a lot of bleeding prior to MTX though.
Thanks
Sarah

Hey! So I have a bit of a strange story that’s either just very bad luck, or a horrible mistake…I’ve been trying to conceive for 6 months and in our 7th month I thought I would try using Conceive Plus to help fertilisation along. Lo and behold, I got my BFP! I couldn’t believe it. However, after man...

Hi all, this is my first time posting on here. I received my first dose of methotrexate 4 days ago, at which time I had an hcg of 412. Today I had my day 4 blood test, and I was very upset to learn it had risen to a bit over 700. I wasn’t warned that this might happen, but the doctor was very reassu...
