Hi
Im not sure if anyone can help, i had suspected ectopic and had surgery last week. After the surgery they advised me it wasn’t ectopic and my tubes where fine and they just removed all the tissue.
How long would i wait to try again? Would it be 3 months or just a normal cycle?
Dear Trolleydolly2,
I am so sorry to hear of your loss.
Unfortunately I am not medically trained so cannot give you specific advice on your queries. I’m guessing from your post that you have experienced a miscarriage rather than ectopic pregnancy.
I have added some information on trying to conceive following miscarriage here.

As you had surgery, we and many health professionals advise waiting for two menstrual cycles. It is important to allow time for your body to recover and emotions to surface and be worked through. This is so that you have some comfort that your body is returning to its natural rhythm and you have a last menstrual period date from which to date a new pregnancy. The first bleed soon after surgery for ectopic pregnancy is not classed as a period as it is the body’s response to falling hormone levels.
Above all be kind to yourself and allow time to grieve, to heal both physically and emotionally.
Sending much love,
