Hello
Thanks for your query.
Based on your B HCG levels, your pregnancy is definitely going well right now.
However, to know if the fetus is viable or not, an ultrasound scan should be scheduled at 6 weeks.
Visualization of a fetus with heartbeat is the most reliable indicator of a positive pregnancy outcome.
COntinue taking the medications as advised.
Take rest, and avoid stress and coitus.
All the best.

Hi dear,
it is very true that the chances of repeat ectopic are very high. But, in your case, firstly BHCG titres clearly state that you are pregnant and secondly te increase in titre between 38th and 40 days of more than 2 times also points to intrauterine pregnancy. However get an ultrasound done within 2-3 days because at BHCG level of >2500, intrauterine pregnancy can be picked up with USG
