I had laparoscopic surgery for an ectopic pregnancy two months ago. This month, my period hasn't come. What could be the reason? Besides that, I've been getting pimples on my forehead ever since the surgery.

Doctor's answer:

Should there be sexual activity after surgery? It is recommended that patients relax their minds and test the paper to see how to get pregnant. If the test paper is negative, it is advisable to go to the hospital for a check-up and have a color ultrasound to examine the thickness of the endometrium. Observe how the menstrual period comes and pay close attention for a week. Patients facing the problem of ectopic pregnancy should promptly follow the principle of symptomatic treatment and should not avoid seeking medical attention.
