Hello dear,
I understand your concern.
In my opinion the chances of ectopic pregnancy might be less.
The recurrence of ectopic in furthur pregnancy is 10-20%.
The ectopic pregnancy usually presents with pain abdomen with or without spotting.
The urine pregnancy test helps in diagnosing the condition.It is usually weakly positive in case of ectopic pregnancy.
And ultrasound confirms the diagnosis .
If the urine pregnancy test is negative and ultrasound is normal then there can not be ectopic.
So relax and avoid stress.
I would like you to consult a doctor and get the investigations done.
Nothing to worry.
If there is no pregnancy giving a gap of 4-6 months and planning for next pregnancy would be a good option.
Hope this helps.
Best regards...Dr.Srilatha
