Brief Answer:

Detailed Answer:
Hi there, Dr. Purushottm Neurgaonkar welcomes you to HCM VIRTUAL CLINIC. I have gone through your question, and I I think I have understood your concern. I will suggest you the best possible treatment options.

1 ) First of all do not panic.

2 ) Sorry to hear about the episode of Ectopic pregnancy .

3 ) Usually after any such episode, I suggest to my patients to give at least 3 months of rest before planning for the next pregnancy.

Use of vitamin B 12, Folic acid omega 3 supplements on daily basis at least for 3 months before you plan to get pregnant is advisable. This helps to prevent various complications during the pregnancy.

4 ) Also, I will suggest to get HSG - hysterosalpingography done, after next menses , within first ten days of the cycle. This will help to know the patency status of the fallopian tubes.

Unless the fallopian tubes are patent , there is no point in inducing egg formation with medicines.

I hope this answer helps you.

Brief Answer:
Important to know tubal status before planning next pregnancy.

Detailed Answer:
Hi there,
Thanks for appreciating the answer and reverting back.

I suppose that your ectopic pregnancy was managed by conservative, medical method.

Please, get HSG done within 10 days of the cycle, if you are planning ahead for next pregnancy. This will help to know patency status of both the tubes. As there is history of ectopic pregnancy and there was no laparoscopy done during first ectopic pregnancy, it becomes important to know patency of the tubes before going for ovulation induction.

It is not early or late to wait before you plan for next pregnancy, but it is important to know about tubal status , to prevent recurrence of the same problem.

i hope this answer helps you.
Thanks.

Brief Answer:
let the tubes comeback to normal. prenatal vitamins are must.

Detailed Answer:
hi there,
thanks for appreciating the answer and reverting back.

it is not risky from safety point of view or pregnancy wise.

But it will be better if prepare the mother's body with prenatal vitamins and then plan for pregnancy.

Also, let the tube in which ectopic pregnancy occurred to get back to normal. As during the ectopic episode the tube usually gets enlarged, inflamed (swollen) and walls tend to become thinner.

if the tubes are functionally healthy , there should be no problem in getting pregnancy.

i hope this answer helps you.
Thanks.
