Re: Pain months later
I am so sorry to hear of your ectopic pregnancy loss,
Pain following treatment for ectopic pregnancy can be common. It is good that you have had a scan, but I understand frustrating that a cause wasn't found. Many people, including myself also felt discomfort you are describing when they didn't before their ectopic pregnancy. Sometimes this settles with time and in other cases (such as mine) pain an discomfort can still be felt around ovulation, and this is 12 years later. Sadly there is little research into why so many of us experience this, so I cannot offer any answers as to a cause. I will however advise to seek medical advice if it worsens or if you are concerned.
Sending much love,

Re: Pain months later
I had a child after my ectopic by caesarean and I asked her to look for scar tissue and adhesion and the surgeon said everything was totally normal.
It’s so strange! But I’m right there with you.

Hey!! Thanks so much for your reply, I can’t believe you still having pains all they years later, how strange ! I didn’t have surgery I was treated with methotrexate, so find it so weird that I have pain! It can be really uncomfortable at times and puts me off trying again as it makes me worry somethings wrong my husbands told me he’ll pay for a private scan just to double check everything and pay for anything else also he’s happy to wait as long as I need, but I just don’t know ! Congratulations on your rainbow baby
