Information for the festive season

The EPT online forum is here as a safe space over the Christmas season. You can express yourself among others who may be feeling similar emotions at this time after having an ectopic pregnancy. Many would understand and care, providing mutual support and companionship. You are welcome to write about your thoughts and feelings, read those of others, or a mix of both - whatever you feel suits you best.

For messages posted/sent to The EPT between 24 December-9 January, we will be checking as often as we can. We will do our best to reply when possible/in the New Year. The EPT’s normal service will resume from 10 January.

If you are experiencing symptoms of ectopic pregnancy, please do not wait for a reply and seek medical attention as soon as possible:

If you have had treatment for ectopic pregnancy and have signs of infection or other symptoms that are worrying you, please do not wait for a reply and seek medical attention/contact your doctor:
